2025 was a year of gathering, connection, and healing — and we couldn’t have done it without you.
From moments of remembrance to celebrations of life, from community tables to quiet conversations, this year reminded us why we do what we do: to stand beside our first responders and their families, ensuring no one walks alone.
This highlight reel captures just a few of the moments that shaped 2025 — the service, the laughter, the tears, and the unwavering support of a community that shows up every time.
💛 To our first responders
💛 To our volunteers
💛 To our donors, sponsors, and partners
💛 To every person who pulled up a chair at the table
Thank you for believing in our mission and being part of this journey. We can’t wait to see what we build together in 2026.
Gather. Connect. Heal.

The Kitchen Table Foundation

We were recently honored by a visit from members of Thekitchentablefoundation.org. The Kitchen Table Foundation exists to strengthen the brotherhood and sisterhood of the fire service, law enforcement, Emergency Medical Services (EMS), active military, and veterans. We provide a place to gather, break bread, and find connection through camaraderie, shared experience, and peer support. Rooted in tradition, built on trust, and driven by service, we aim to uphold the mental and emotional well-being of those who run toward the call. Pictured are Director Juan Acosta, Jr., Sheridan Police Chief Jason Teague, and Foundation Members Eric Shepard and Philip Koch.
