What began as the Protectors of Elizabeth Tribute has grown into something truly special. Now in its 8th year, First Responder Day remains a deeply rooted tradition in our community — a day dedicated to honoring the brave men and women who selflessly serve and protect us every single day.
This year marks our third year partnering with the Elizabeth Firefighters Community Foundation, and together, we are proud to host this free, family-friendly event for the entire community. Last year, thanks to the incredible generosity of our community and sponsors, we raised over $10,000 to directly benefit first responder foundations—and this year, we hope to do even more.
Join us for an afternoon filled with free food, fun activities for kids, the band These Guys, and opportunities to meet and support the nonprofits who stand behind our first responders.
While admission is free, every dollar raised will go directly to the foundations that support our local heroes — because we believe giving back to those who protect us is not just a responsibility, it’s an honor.
Come together with neighbors, families, and friends to show your appreciation and celebrate the heart of our community.
Thank you to The Means Agency.
