The Protectors Foundation

The Protectors Foundation is a veteran-operated 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to supporting protectors - such as law enforcement officers, firefighters, and first responders - with essential equipment and training. Our mission is to address the critical gap where many protectors must pay out-of-pocket for vital gear and skills development.

Key points:

  • Provides crucial equipment (e.g., tourniquets) and vetted training to protectors

  • Raises funds through corporate partnerships and special events

  • Aims to alleviate the financial burden on individual protectors

  • Focuses on enhancing protector safety and effectiveness

By equipping and empowering those who serve and protect our communities, The Protectors Foundation strives to create a safer environment for both protectors and the public they serve.

The Protectors® Podcast

The Protectors® Podcast

The Protectors Foundation emerged as a natural evolution of The Protectors® Podcast, hosted by Dr. Jason Piccolo. After conducting hundreds of interviews with an array of guests—from courageous frontline protectors to New York Times bestselling authors and Hollywood actors—a recurring theme became clear: the profound impact of service and the ongoing needs of those who dedicate their lives to protecting others.

Inspired by the stories of valor, sacrifice, and resilience shared on the podcast, Dr. Piccolo recognized an opportunity to transform these powerful narratives into tangible support. The foundation was established to bridge the gap between awareness and action, leveraging the insights gained from diverse voices featured on the show.

Drawing from the experiences of guests, and the host’s travels, the foundation addresses the multifaceted challenges faced by protectors. This initiative stands as a testament to the power of storytelling and the community built through The Protectors® Podcast. It embodies the spirit of service that unites the protectors, storytellers, and supporters, creating a platform where admiration transforms into meaningful assistance for those who have given so much in service to others.
