This past week was National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. The First Responders Foundation, Sioux Falls Chapter truly appreciates what our 911 dispatchers do, day in and day out. They are the "calm in the chaos" and are often considered the forgotten first responders.

In collaboration with Inca's restaurant in Sioux Falls, the FRF provided and delivered meals to the 3 shifts of 911 dispatchers on April 14th. We truly appreciate the hard work and dedication of the 911 dispatchers.

Thank you for all you do!

Thank you Empower U looking forward to the race.

This past Monday the First Responders Foundation – Sioux Falls Chapter presented (3) $3,000 checks to the handlers of the 3 retired Sioux Falls Police Department K-9’s. When a law enforcement K-9 retires from service, they typically are then cared for by the handlers that worked with them throughout their service or someone else within the department. These dogs actively serve the citizens and visitors of Sioux Falls for 6-10 years, depending on their health and ability. Due to the nature of their previous service, these K-9’s may have additional vet and care needs during their retirement years.

The First Responders Foundation – Sioux Falls Chapter has committed to provide support to the handlers of the retired K-9’s. With the support of our community, we hope to continue to support these retired K-9’s for many years to come. There are currently 3 retired K-9’s, Spike, Tommy (pictured below), and Robie. A 4th retired K-9 will be added to our 2026 list, Bram.

The First Responders Foundation - Sioux Falls Chapter would like to take this time to thank our community for your generous support.
