"SHIELD616 was founded by and for First Responders with the goal of protecting those who protect us," the organization states online.

"First, we want to equip every first responder with necessary, advanced active shooter / crowd control gear," the SHIELD616 website states. "Second, we want to provide a support group for that first responder who will pray for the first responder and his or her family on a daily basis and shower the first responder with support and encouragement throughout the year."
