Gabrielle Rockwell (MPP '19) currently serves as 社区 Engagement Representative for FirefighterAid, a 501(c)(3) managed by San Diego Fireman's Relief Association. FirefighterAid's mission is to provide charitable assistance to Firefighters and their families in times of need and to promote awareness of Firefighter health and safety issues and the impacts they have upon their families and communities. Whether it is delivering a comfort bag to an ill or injured Firefighter, helping a fire family battle a life-threatening kidney illness, caring for the Surviving Spouses that our Firefighters leave behind, or sharing our free Cancer Awareness and Prevention Program nationwide - FirefighterAid is there to support our daily heroes through it all.

"It's always been my mission to give back to those who care for us and help foster a greater sense of community wherever I live. FirefighterAid was the perfect way to stay true to my passions and spread some love across San Diego County to our Firefighter families."
