In addition, because we serve the families of multiple departments (NYPD, FDNY, and PAPD), we are able to provide these families with a much larger network of support. Many of our beneficiaries have become close friends with other families that they otherwise would have never had the opportunity to meet... When these brave men and women make the ultimate sacrifice to protect our city, we believe it is our civic duty to support the families these heroes have left behind. Our mission is to reassure these families that we will never forget them or the sacrifice made by their loved ones. We provide financial assistance, host special gatherings, and offer a network of support to approximately 530 families. Our goal is to raise enough funds to assist these families for the rest of their lives... Answer the Call provides financial assistance and support to the families of New York City police and firefighters who have been killed in the line of duty.
