Private donations, business sponsorships and grants enable us to stage our signature concert event with no admission charge. But we continue to support our heroes and their families long after the music ends!
Net proceeds raised go directly to our Hero Fund, through which we support existing programs and initiatives that align with our mission. In addition, Rockin’ 4 Heroes creates new scholarship opportunities for those considering a career in Public Service.
THE ROCKIN’ 4 HEROES JACOB DINDINGER MEMORIAL EMT SCHOLARSHIP
• In 2024, we launched a new EMT endowment scholarship through the Pima Foundation at Pima Community College in Tucson, AZ.
The Rockin’ 4 Heroes Jacob Dindinger Memorial Scholarship honors a young Tucson EMT who tragically lost his life while on duty serving our community. Jacob aspired to be a firefighter. His legacy continues through this scholarship to encourage individuals to pursue careers in emergency services. Two scholarships are awarded annually, one in the fall and one in the spring semester.
