Support Lt. Kristen Greiner-Samuels Cancer Battle

Support Lt. Kristen Greiner-Samuels in Her Fight Against Cancer

Kristen Greiner-Samuels has spent her life running toward emergencies — not away from them. A proud Fire Lieutenant with the Prince William County Department of Fire and Rescue, Kristen has dedicated over 15 years to protecting and serving our communities. She began her fire service career in New York before joining Prince William County, where she’s spent the last 11 years answering the call without hesitation.

Kristen isn't just a firefighter. She’s a leader, a mentor, a sister in service, and a trusted friend. She has trained and shaped the next generation of first responders, leading new recruits through the fire academy and helping them build the courage, heart, and skill it takes to serve. Wherever she has been assigned — whether on the engine or at the academy — Kristen has always stepped up where she was needed most.

Today, Kristen faces her toughest battle yet:

She has recently been diagnosed with Stage 3 Cervical Cancer. Tragically, this form of cancer is not covered under the Firefighter Cancer Presumption Act — meaning many of the costs associated with her treatment will fall directly on her shoulders.

The news has shaken all of us who know and love Kristen — her friends, her family, her firehouse brothers and sisters, and everyone lucky enough to have crossed her path. Kristen is the kind of person you can count on through any storm — steady, fierce, and loyal. Now, it’s our turn to be that steady force for her.

This GoFundMe has been created to help ease the financial burden of medical expenses, specialized treatment, and living costs while Kristen focuses all her strength on healing. Every donation, every share, and every word of encouragement makes a difference.

Kristen has given her heart to serving others. Let’s show her that same heart back — tenfold. ❤️‍

Please donate, share, and keep Kristen in your prayers. She is not fighting this battle alone — she has an army behind her.
