The Fire Hero Band, created by Drop Band, is more than just a wearable — it’s a simple, powerful way to support firefighters and Fire Hero Families through the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF).
With every tap-to-pay purchase, you’re helping to honor fallen firefighters, support their families, colleagues, and organizations, and preventable firefighter deaths and injuries— all from your wrist.
Everyday Support. Every Tap.
The Fire Hero Band is built for those who give their all — firefighters and the people who stand behind them. It’s a no-charge, no-WiFi wearable that makes giving back effortless and keeps you connected wherever life takes you.
Every tap helps a firefighter. Every tap supports a Fire Hero Family. Every day.

My wife and I have been using the Drop Bands for a week, and they are great! Yesterday, we stopped for lunch at our favorite food truck, and I realized I had left my wallet in the car, which was across a large parking lot. Then I remembered the food truck uses tap for payment and that I had the NFFF Drop band, so I paid by tapping. I love that there is no tracking or selling of personal information, and most of all, I appreciate that each purchase is a donation to the NFFF without any cost to me, as the NFFF receives a portion of each transaction fee that would have been incurred anyway with a credit card purchase. Makes it so easy to support the NFFF Mission!
Simple. Secure. Supportive.
