Program areas at Fire Family Foundation
Through the firefighter relief fund, the Fire Family Foundation assists firefighters and their families who are in need. During times of hardship, members of the Fire Family fill out an application to receive support for things including paying for medical bills or devices, rent or mortgage payments, car payments, or specialty items like a service animal.
Through the Fire charity grants program, the Fire Family Foundation provides financial assistance to support other Fire charities nationwide in support of the local needs of firefighters.
The Fire Family Foundation provides ten merit-based college scholarships to children of active, retired and fallen firefighters annually. These scholarships demonstrate our commitment to the Fire Family and allow for the children of firefighters to more easily pursue higher education.
