Help Davontre Become an EMT – First Step Toward Firefight

Hi, my name is Davontre Henderson, and I’m working hard to become a firefighter — but first, I need to complete EMT training.

Currently, I’m working with the Fire Crew Clean-up Team in the Palisades, assisting in restoring areas impacted by wildfires. Previously, I played linebacker at Delta State University, where I developed discipline, teamwork, and a strong work ethic. These experiences have fueled my passion for serving the community, and now I’m ready to take the next step by becoming a certified Emergency Medical Technician (EMT).

Why I’m Asking for Support

I’ve been accepted into an EMT program, but the costs — including tuition, books, rent, and transportation — are more than I can manage alone. While I’m working and saving diligently, the demands of full-time training will require me to reduce my work hours.

Your support will help me cover:

• ✅ EMT tuition and certification

• ✅ Books and required gear

• ✅ Rent and basic living expenses during training

• ✅ Transportation to and from classes and clinicals.

• Books & Supplies: $351.46

• Rent & Utilities (During Training): $5,000

• Transportation: $1,000

Total Goal: $7,946.46

Why This Matters

Becoming a firefighter isn’t just a job — it’s a mission to serve and protect. EMT certification is my first major step, and I’m ready to give this my all.

Even a small donation — $5, $10, or $20 — makes a real difference. And if you can’t donate, please consider sharing this campaign with others who might.

Thank you so much for supporting me in chasing this dream. I truly can’t do it without you.

With gratitude,

Davontre Henderson
