Each November, during the annual Texas EMS Conference, Emergency Medical Services (EMS) professionals who have lost their lives in the line of duty are honored through induction into the Texas EMS Hall of Honor. Since 2011, TAAMS has proudly partnered with the Texas Department of State Health Services to support this meaningful recognition.

As part of this commitment, TAAMS hosts an annual fundraising event and silent auction in conjunction with the conference. Proceeds help offset travel and attendance costs for the families of fallen EMS professionals, ensuring they can be present for the Hall of Honor ceremony. In addition, funds support up to five family scholarships each year, providing post-secondary educational assistance to the children of honorees.

This year’s event and silent auction will take place in Fort Worth on November 22, 2026.

We invite your organization to support this important mission by becoming an event sponsor and/or contributing an item to the silent auction. Sponsors will be recognized across digital, print, and social media platforms, as well as on event signage, including our sponsor banner featuring your organization’s logo. Silent auction contributions will be prominently acknowledged during the event.

The Texas Association of Air Medical Services (TAAMS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization representing air medical transport providers, industry partners, and individuals across Texas. Together, our members collaborate to share knowledge, address challenges, and advance leadership, education, and innovation within the air medical community.

If you are unable to participate this year, we hope you will consider supporting TAAMS in the future.

Thank you for your consideration,
