SHIELD 23 FOUNDATION INC
Mission Statement
Shield 23 Foundation is a non-profit organization that raises funds for and gifts funds to firefighters battling cancer and the families that stand beside them. Our mission goals are: financial assistance, peer support, and increasing awareness. The Foundation serves to honor the legacy of Russ Constantino by defraying the costs of treatment and care for firefighters battling cancer and the families standing by their side. Shield 23 Foundation aims to increase public awareness of the impact of job-related cancer in the fire service and encourage education and cancer risk prevention practices within the fire service. Shield 23 Foundation is working to create a program that will provide an opportunity for a firefighter battling cancer to be matched up with another firefighter who has experienced that journey, and is volunteering their time and support to offer a unique perspective that only a fellow brother or sister in the fire service would understand.
