Pastore, Kim
As the founder of the Jorge Pastore Foundation (JPF), Kim honors the legacy of her late husband, Jorge, who was killed in the line of duty. JPF provides no-cost training and grants to first responders and partners with other foundations to offer meaningful wellness programs for both first responders and veterans. After losing Jorge, the only way Kim saw forward was to honor his memory and the man he was by working to improve the lives and careers of those who selflessly serve and protect our communities. "Everything Jorge and I have done and accomplished together has led me to this. I'm committed to turning my pain into purpose while being in service to others - the way he was throughout his entire career."
