The Lipford Foundation was established with a profound commitment: to give back to those who gave all.
We honor the bravery of emergency responders who risk their lives daily and to support the families who stand beside them. We’re here to lend a compassionate hand to those who face unimaginable loss or hardship while protecting and serving their communities. Through financial assistance, resources, and unwavering support, we help families of fallen and injured heroes rebuild their lives. Together, we can give back to those who have given so much.
The Lipford Foundation was founded in memory of Deputy Sheriff Allen Lipford, who was killed in the line of duty in 1991 while bravely defending his community. In 2021, Allen’s partner, Mark Hutchinson, established the foundation to honor his legacy and extend support to other families facing similar challenges. Allen’s story of courage and dedication is one of many, and his memory inspires our commitment to serve and support families of emergency responders nationwide. Through the foundation, we honor not only Allen’s life but also the lives of countless other heroes who’ve given all in the name of duty.
At the Lipford Foundation, we believe that no family should have to face hardship alone. Our support programs provide emergency responders’ families with essential assistance and resources in times of tragedy. From financial aid that alleviates immediate burdens to ongoing support that helps families rebuild, our work is focused on empowering those who have sacrificed for their communities. We are proud to have supported families in their darkest moments, offering hope, stability, and connection to a community that understands their journey.
Our impact is made possible by donors like you who believe in giving back to those who gave all. Together, we can continue to bring hope to the families of those who risk everything for our safety.
