Empowering Firefighters and their families across the United States through mental health awareness, assistance, and community support.
Rooftop Angels | Lifting Up Our Local Heroes
Every day, our firefighters run toward danger so we can live safely. At Rooftop Angels, we give back by helping them and their families heal from the invisible wounds of service. Your donation directly funds mental health programs, counseling, and wellness initiatives across the country.
Who We Are
Supporting First Responders
Rooftop Angels is a nonprofit organization based in Winnebago, Illinois, devoted to improving the mental health and overall well-being of first responders and their families. We recognize the emotional strain and trauma that often accompany a life of service. Our mission is to bridge the gap between those who protect our communities and the resources they need to recover, rebuild, and thrive.
Through the generosity of donors and volunteers, we provide financial support for therapy, wellness programs, and community events focused on healing and connection.
Firefighters: Silent Strength Under Pressure
Firefighters face physical danger and emotional strain with every call. Many silently battle anxiety, trauma, and exhaustion after years of service. Rooftop Angels funds counseling, stress management programs, and peer support to help them heal and find balance.
Families: Standing Strong Beside Their Heroes
Families of firefighters carry a quiet load-long nights, constant worry, and the emotional aftershocks that follow tough calls. Rooftop Angels offers counseling, wellness resources, and community support to help them feel understood, supported, and not alone.
Survivors & Retired Firefighters: Beyond the Badge
Many retired firefighters and survivors continue to feel the emotional weight of their service. Rooftop Angels provides mental health care, group support, and wellness programs that offer hope and steady encouragement long after the uniform comes off.
