From the organizer’s website:
“Each year, dedicated members of the Louisiana EMS community go out into our communities to provide care for those in need during times of crisis. Some of our members do this directly by intervening during a patient’s medical emergency. Some of our members do this indirectly by teaching others to provide care or get involved in the development of EMS systems throughout our State.
Unfortunately, some of these professionals are victims of an untimely death. Whether the loss of our heroes was due to a line of duty death or an untimely death due to illness, the impact from the loss within our profession is no less dramatic.
LANREMT is proud to take the lead in organizing a fund raising event whose purpose is to raise awareness of our fallen members and ensure that their sacrifice and contribution is never forgotten.
