Thank you for visiting Black Hills Badges for Hope

As a donor-driven nonprofit, our mission is made possible because of people like you, individuals who believe in the power of community and the importance of standing with children and families during times of need.

Founded by local first responders and community leaders, we work every day to bridge the gap between local first responders and the children most affected by trauma, poverty, or loss. From providing sports and activity scholarships, to organizing youth outreach programs and community outreach events, your generosity fuels every act of hope we deliver.

Your support doesn’t just fund programs, it changes lives. With your help, we can continue to grow our impact across the Black Hills region, ensuring no child faces hardship alone and those children in need have hope.

We invite you to explore the difference your donation makes. Together, we are building safer, stronger, and more compassionate communities.

Join Us in Dreaming, Building, Growing and Sharing

Dream

When you're a child, the world is full of wonder, every siren, every star, every uniform sparks a dream of what you might one day become. In those quiet moments, dreaming isn’t just about what you’ll be, it’s about who you’ll be. But dreams need more than imagination; they need hope. Hope says, “You matter. You can. You will.” And sometimes, it arrives as a badge, a kind word, a backpack, or a community that believes. Because when a child is given hope, they don’t just dream, they become.

Build

You don’t wait for hope to arrive—you build it. One brick at a time. One act of kindness. One moment of courage. It doesn’t start with a grand design. It starts with showing up. With believing that small things matter. That every effort counts. Because when we build together—with heart, with purpose, and with hope—we create more than structures. We create strength, belonging, and a future worth fighting for.

Every act of kindness, every moment of service, is an investment in the future we all share. Through the work we do at Black Hills Badges for Hope, we’re not just responding to today’s needs, we’re shaping tomorrow’s possibilities. Together, we’re building a future filled with hope, and there’s room for all of us in the story that’s still being written.

Grow

Hope grows strongest when we grow it together. Through the partnership of first responders and the generosity of donors, Black Hills Badges for Hope turns compassion into action—reaching children and families when they need it most. Every gift, every shared mission, plants a seed of possibility. Together, we’re not just meeting needs, we’re building futures filled with strength, safety, and hope.
