34th Annual Valor Awards

An Inspiring Celebration 

Held on December 10, 2024

​

​The 34th Annual Valor Award ceremony was a big success.  These Awards honor local Law Enforcement, Firefighter, and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel who have performed exceptional acts of courage, putting themselves at risk and personal injury.

 

This year's event had a record number of registered attendees and our highest level of sponsorships.  16 First Responders from 7 area departments were honored.  The honorees came from Chesterfield County Fire & EMS, Hanover County Fire & EMS, Hanover County Sheriff's Office, Henrico County Police Division, Richmond Police Department, VCU Police Department and Virginia State Police.

 

In addition to honoring and thanking the award recipients, the event included the special recognition of Colonel Gary Settle.  Colonel Settle is retiring from the Virgnia State Police after 40 years of law enforcement service.  

​

Josh Goldberg, CEO of Boulder Crest Foundation spoke of the partnership between Valor RVA and Boulder Crest.  Through this partnership and its Struggle Well training, we are helping First Responders transform their struggle into profound strength and Post-traumatic Growth.

​

The event was covered by Richmond Times Dispatch, WTVR (CBS 6) and WRIC (ABC 8)  and numerous community social media accounts, including Valor RVA's.  

 

We owe a great deal to the men and women who tirelessly serve our community.  They keep us safe, respond to our calls for help, provide emergency care, and offer a presence of security in uncertain times. Valor RVA is grateful for the opportunity to present these awards. 

​​​​​

We Hope To See You At Next Year's Valor Awards!
