NEP Services is at the forefront of empowering unions and nonprofits through innovative technology and strategic communications. Since our inception, we've adapted to the evolving digital landscape, introducing cutting-edge fundraising opportunities via websites, email, and targeted social media campaigns. Our proprietary tools, including the Connect Plus+ mobile app, have revolutionized membership communication and management, allowing organizations to engage their supporters more effectively than ever before.
Our mission is to strengthen emergency responder and nonprofit organizations through advanced technology, proven fundraising strategies, and brand-building communications. We've developed a full suite of integrated, cloud-based software that serves as a force multiplier for the labor movement. Our solutions enable union leaders to dominate online conversations, bringing renewed attention to labor issues and fostering greater management flexibility and accessibility.
NEP Services' strategic use of data and multi-channeled demographic targeting has secured numerous public safety victories for police officers and firefighters. Through strategic community outreach, we help cultivate networks of local advocates who can rally support when public safety initiatives face challenges. Our approach has proven particularly successful for emergency responder unions during contract negotiations, as we help them garner public support before activating their base. Through our comprehensive digital advocacy services, NEP Services is reshaping the dynamics between organizations and their communities, setting new standards for successful public engagement.

Our decades of working with law enforcement and firefighter organizations have inspired a stronger connection and appreciation for the hard work and dedication that our emergency responders face on and off-duty. Knowing the ins and outs of their membership, NEP Services decided to create charitable foundations designed to give back to those who help keep our communities safe.
In connection with our longstanding relationship with law enforcement agencies across North America, NEP Services established The National 9-99 Police & Sheriff Foundation. The mission is simple: supporting the lives of officers and deputies from around the nation. We’re proud to share that The National 9-99 Police & Sheriff Foundation has raised nearly $1M since its inception in 2016.
To support our fire fighters and EMS personnel agencies, NEP Services also created the NEP Fire Fighter Foundation to give back to fire fighters when they need it most, keeping them safe and ready to serve their communities. With a goal of ensuring fire fighters get the help they need after the calls they answer that most people would run away from, NEP Fire Fighter Foundation helps ensure fire fighters have the tools and support to overcome behavioral health issues, return to the frontline, and enjoy a long career in the fire service serving their communities. Since being established in 2021, we’ve proudly raised over $500,000 for fire fighters and their families.
