Join us for the Guns & Hoses charity hockey game on March 9, where we’ll watch local firefighters and law enforcement face off against one another for a great cause, with the Admirals’ game immediately following.

This is a promotional evening for HKF at the game
We strive to build hope, confidence, and self-worth.
Hero Kids Foundation is dedicated to serving those who serve at home & enriching families to connect, restore, and thrive.
Hear from some of the individuals and families we have supported:
Volunteer
My family deeply appreciates and supports Hero Kids Foundation (HKF) for its holistic approach. They prioritize the entire family and not just the one in uniform. What a great resource!
Capt with VBPD
I have been fortunate to participate with the opportunities and partnership that HKF has provided to the VBPD families! The activities encourage families to connect in a safe environment and to restore the officer from the daily stress and trauma of this profession. Thank you HKF!

I met John [Raniowski] back in 2014 at a Mounted Games competition, where he told me about his idea for Hero Kids Foundation. He told me how he wanted to give back to military and first responder families experiencing PTSD, and how he wanted to buy a plot of land. I’m proud to have seen these accomplishments firsthand and look forward to what’s to come for HKF!
