In 2018, the Gary Sinise Foundation awarded Friends of Firefighters with a grant to bolster counseling services at our headquarters in Brooklyn. The Gary Sinise Foundation Center for Wellness in Honor of John Vigiano is named for our and Garyโs beloved friend, a former Marine and decorated retired FDNY captain who lost both of his first responder sons on 9/11.
