As with any nonprofit organization we will rely on memberships, donations, volunteers and sponsorships from a number of companies and other organizations.The SFRS and its Crisis & Support Response Team will not interfere with the local First Responder or other Emergency Service Units, but will act as an independent auxiliary emergency support unit to assistance in the aftermath of a local  crisis or disaster near or within their communities.

Most Importantly: The Samaritan First Responders Society strongly discourages ANY and ALL of its SFRS Members, Volunteers or Associates from putting themselves or anyone else ” In Harms Way”.

Each SFRS Member or Volunteer’s first responsibility is to phone the emergency 911 operator and give the Location, and a brief description of the emergency as it pertains to the situation. The SFRS Member or Volunteer notifies their  Crisis Team Leader and await his or her instructions before taken action and when possible await the arrival of experienced first responders or a Crisis Team Leader. The safety of everyone involved is paramount to the SFRS organization!
