ABOUT US

The Chester County Hero Fund is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, providing
financial assistance to First Responders (Law Enforcement, Fire and EMS), helping with
expenses related to loss of life, disability, or severe injury in the line of duty.
We are a registered Charitable Organization with the Pennsylvania Department of
State, Bureau of Corporations and Charitable Organizations. Registration No. 122125
Twenty-four (24) hours a day, 365 days a year, you, your home, and your place of
business are protected by law enforcement officers, firefighters, emergency medical and
rescue personnel. These fellow citizens lay their lives on the line daily to make Chester
County a better and safer place to live.

 

These first responders, both paid and volunteer, are prepared to risk their lives every
day and they deserve our support. When injury or loss of life occurs while in the line of
duty, the families of these public servants are often left in debt and without support.
The Chester County Hero Fund provides concerned civic-minded individuals and
businesses, like yourself, the opportunity to show you care for the people who care for
you. Your entire donation goes to benefit first responders and is tax-deductible.

The Chester Counter Hero Fund now gratefully accepts gifts of stock, and charitable IRA distributions, providing an advantageous way to support our first responders.

These donations may allow you to avoid capital gains tax and potentially receive a charitable deduction for the stock’s full market value, maximizing your impact. Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) that meet IRS rules may also offset the required minimum distributions (RMDs).

Discuss your situation with a qualified tax advisor for details.
