T-Mobile and First Responders Children’s Foundation Celebrate National First Responders Day Nationwide

Jillian Crane, President and CEO of First Responders Children’s Foundation

“The people we honor on National First Responders Day aren't looking for recognition. They're focused on doing their jobs, saving lives, and taking care of their communities. By recognizing their service it means so much to the children and families who stand behind them. With T-Mobile's support, we're bringing recognition to communities across the country, giving more people a chance to celebrate their hometown heroes.”

Chris Sambar, Chief Enterprise Officer, T-Mobile Business Group

“We are proud to honor Chad Huff with the T-Priority Leadership Award. First responders like Chad dedicate their lives to being there for others, often at great personal sacrifice. Working with First Responders Children’s Foundation, we recognize their service and the families who support them. And, when their communications connectivity matters most, we are there with T-Priority, providing them with priority access to the fastest, most reliable network.”

Jon Stewart, Host of the Roll Call of Heroes ceremony

“First responders are there for us during some of the hardest moments of our lives, and I think it's important that we show up for them, too. I'm proud to be back for a second year to help honor these heroes and the work they do every day. I'm grateful to First Responders Children's Foundation and for helping shine a light on those willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to keep our communities safe.”
