WOONSOCKET, R.I., March 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- CVS Health (NYSE: CVS) today announced that it will award $100,000 to The 100 Club of Chicago, a non-profit organization that provides financial support for the families of first responders who have lost their lives in the line of duty. In addition to helping advance the organization's mission, the gift from CVS Health will support the Valor Awards, a prestigious honor presented by The 100 Club of Chicago each year to the men and women who have performed actions above and beyond the call of duty.

"The 100 Club is so excited to begin this partnership with CVS Health," said CEO of the 100 Club of Chicago, Joe Ahern. "Support like this helps ensure that we are able to provide for our families when tragedy strikes. We are beyond grateful for their support of our first responders." 

"As a longstanding board member of the 100 Club of Chicago, I truly appreciate the financial support and compassion that CVS Health is demonstrating toward the families of our fallen first responders," said Alderman Edward. M. Burke, Chairman of the Chicago City Council's Committee on Finance.

The company's donation will be presented during the 38th Annual Valor Awards on April 19 by Lisa Butler, a senior director of marketing at CVS Health whose nephews' father, Chicago Police Officer Larry Vincent, was killed in the line of duty in 1983 and whose family received support from The 100 Club.

"Through their dedication and courage, first responders give so much to all of us and are indispensable to maintaining the health and safety of our communities," said Butler. "This contribution to The 100 Club of Chicago is CVS Health's way of saying thank you for your service."

Since its founding in 1966, The 100 Club of Chicago has given out more than $10 million to families of fallen police and firefighters.
