TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — The Erik Hite Foundation is hosting its 11th annual First Responders Circle of Care Gala with an enchanted splendor theme.

The event is at the JW Marriott Starr Pass Resort on November 8 and it is honoring those who serve and protect.

Money from the gala will go towards the foundation. This year they said it will go towards their emergency relief fund for public safety families facing hardships.

The commander sponsor is the Fraternal Order of Police Tucson Lodge 1. The title sponsor is the Mike and Claudia Levin Family.

The Erik Hite Foundation is named after Erik Hite, who worked at the Tucson Police Department from 2004 to 2008. He passed away in 2008 in the line of duty.

Together, we can honor the courage of those who keep our communities safe and provide vital support to their loved ones. Enjoy an elegant dinner, inspiring stories, and uplifting entertainment—all while making a meaningful difference," the foundation's CEO Nohemy Hite said. "Your presence and generosity will help ensure that the families of our public safety heroes receive the care and resources they deserve."
