About The Weekend of Honor
The National EMS Weekend of Honor is possible through the work of hundreds of volunteers and private donors and is organized and hosted by the following non-profit organizations:
National EMS Memorial Bike Ride– whose mission is to honor EMS personnel by organizing and implementing long distance cycling events that memorialize and celebrate the lives of those who serve every day, those who have become sick or injured while performing their duties, and those who have died in the line of duty. NEMSMBR.org.
National EMS Memorial Service-whose mission is to honor those in EMS from air and ground who have made the Ultimate Sacrifice having died in the line of duty and is the organization that is congressionally sanctioned to conduct the annual service. national-ems-memorial.org.
The Weekend of Honor organizers continue to salute the tireless work of their colleagues at the National EMS Memorial Foundation– whose mission is to build the National EMS Memorial in Washington, D.C. that will commemorate the ongoing commitment, service and sacrifice of the Nation’s Emergency Medical Services providers killed, injured, or disabled in the line of duty and for all those that continue to serve. www.emsmemorial.org.
We understand that the Weekend of Honor may be emotional for anyone attending.
Grief professionals, Chaplains, Peer Support Team members, therapy animals, and Child Life Specialists will be available on-site to provide additional support.
