WHO WE ARE

The Edina First Responders Fund helps provide training, equipment, and other resources that support the police officers, firefighters, and emergency responders our community counts on every day.

WHY IT MATTERS

Edina doesn’t just respond.
We prepare.

Safe streets. Quick responses. Moments of calm in the middle of chaos. You don’t always see first responders at work. But you see what they make possible. That level of service only happens because there are people in this community who choose to train harder, prepare longer, and continually work to be ready when they’re needed most.

how we help

They have your back.
Help us have theirs.

Public funding provides the foundation for essential services. Community support helps provide opportunities that go beyond the basics. Every donation we receive helps strengthen the people and departments who keep Edina safe

how we help

A legacy of support.

For decades, our organization operated as the Edina Crime Prevention Fund, supporting the work of the Edina Police Department. Today, as the Edina First Responders Fund, we’re expanding that commitment to also support firefighters and first responders throughout our community.

The sky is filled with clouds illuminated by the setting sun, creating a colorful sunset backdrop. Pedestrians are on the sidewalk, some walking, some standing, near trees and storefronts.

This is a community we
take care of together.

Join us in supporting the first responders who help keep Edina safe.
