Association Leadership
We are proud to announce the continued growth and development of the Wisconsin EMS Honor Guard Association through the implementation of a strengthened statewide organizational framework that supports our mission of honoring EMS professionals with dignity, professionalism, and compassion.
​
Our State Association leadership structure includes the Commander, Executive Officer, State Training Officer, Secretary/Treasurer, and State Chaplain, all working together to ensure operational excellence, statewide coordination, and consistent ceremonial standards throughout Wisconsin.
​
Each district is led by a dedicated District Director who serves alongside the State Board of Directors, supported by committed District Training Officers and District Chaplains. In larger districts, an Executive Officer further assists in leadership, coordination, communication, and member support.
​
As a federally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Wisconsin EMS Honor Guard Association is entirely volunteer-driven. Our members devote countless hours providing dignified funeral honors, ceremonial tributes, memorial services, public presentations, and support to EMS agencies and families throughout Wisconsin — always at no cost to those we serve.
​
To continue fulfilling this mission, we rely on the generosity of donors, sponsors, partners, and supporters across our communities. Contributions help fund ceremonial uniforms, flags, equipment, training, transportation, and statewide response capabilities necessary to honor the legacy and sacrifice of Wisconsin’s EMS professionals.
Your support truly makes a difference.
​
Whether through a donation, sponsorship, partnership, or legacy gift, you become part of preserving the honor, tradition, and memory of those who dedicated their lives to serving others.
​
Thank you for standing with us as we continue this extraordinary mission of service, remembrance, and respect.
