The Kenneth "SID" Hopkins Scholarship Fund

The Kenneth "SID" Hopkins Scholarship Fund This includes, Fire Fighters, those in EMS, and Law Enforcement. Ken's passion was firefighting and his life was driven by his work as an EMT.

The Kenneth "Sid" Hopkins Memorial Scholarship Fund was created in 2016 by family as a way to award students who are currently pursuing a career in Emergency Services. The Memorial Fund was created to honor the memory of Kenneth "Sid" Hopkins, who passed away on June 30th, 2016. As a life time member of the Croydon Fire Department, he trained and became certified in many areas of firefighting and

went on to serve as a Captain. In his career as an EMT, Ken often times went above and beyond his job duties. While employed at Bucks County Rescue Squad 143, he became part of the EMS Bike Team and also trained to be a member of the Tactical Response Team. Ken dedicated his life to serving the people of his community. Before he passed away, Ken dreamed of furthering his education to become a Paramedic. The Kenneth "Sid" Hopkins Memorial Scholarship Fund is his family's way of making the "dream" happen, in the hopes that others continue to save lives and help those in need, as he did. This will be his legacy!

Thank you, Sgt. McLeod. ❤️

On January 10, 2024 around 11 am, Sgt. Mark McLeod (pictured left) heard a call being dispatched for a suicidal man who was threatening to jump off an overpass and into Route 1 traffic.

Sgt. McLeod was simultaneously able to manage incoming officers, get traffic halted, while also getting the young man to engage in conversation with him. Sgt. McLeod continued to talk to the male until other resources arrived to ensure that they could get him back on safe ground.

Sgt. McLeod undoubtedly saved a life that day. We are so grateful that Sgt. McLeod was able to help this man, and sincerely hope he receives the help, love, and support he needs going forward.
