First Responders Helping First Responders
Your generous donations help us accomplish our goals.
We’re here to help first responders sick with 9/11 related illnesses.
OUR MISSION
Putting First Responders First
The Ray Pfeifer Foundation is a 501c3 charitable organization dedicated to assisting September 11th first responders with medical needs not covered by insurance. The foundation was established in memory of Ray Pfeifer, a NYC firefighter who died on May 28, 2017 from 9/11 cancer. Ray never stopped putting the needs of others before his own. He was a leading force in lobbying to extend the Zadroga Act through 2090, ensuring health care coverage for 75,000 people who need, or will need, treatment for health conditions developed as a direct result of 9/11 exposure.
"Do the right thing, even when no one is looking."
