A Flag for the Fallen

In tribute to the valiant service and dedication our firefighters give to the community, Widows & Orphans proudly holds a special ceremony in their honor after they pass away. See the video.

From NY with Love

New York Life cares about people. And not just their clients, but folks in communities and neighborhoods far from the Big Apple. That's why the company supports Widows & Orphans. As a donor to the charity, they continue that tradition of care. Read the story.

Food, Glorious Food

We have just two words for you: food and firefighters. If that doesn't convince you to come to the Hope for Firefighters event, check this out. All firefighters are great cooks and during the event June 5th, stations fill Hope Street in Downtown L.A. with incredible food booths for your enjoyment. Plus, there's music, competitions and more. Sounds good? We think so, too. Get the info.

Stepping Up

Besides helping the community as an LAFD Fire Inspector, Martin Gutierrez has another passion: cooking at Hope for Firefighters. So, for the past 6 years, he's organized a food booth for the event, one of Widows & Orphans' largest fundraisers. Read his story.

Community & Morality

First Pacific Investors [FPA] aren't your typical financial firm. Working with the motto "investors first," FPA is a leading practitioner of value investing, taking great care to make informed decisions for their clients. That dedication to service led them to support Widows & Orphans as a way to give back to and thank firefighters for all they do. Check out FPA's story.
