Fallen Firefighters Foundation Go to fullsize image

...was established in 1992 with the mission to honor fallen firefighters & to assist survivors in rebuilding of their lives. The Foundation has developed many programs to fulfill this mandate. Immediately after a firefighter dies in the line of duty, the Foundation provides survivors with a place to turn.

Spouses and children of fallen are eligible for scholarship assistance for education and job training. As a result of the first ever Firefighter Life Safety Summit in 2004, 16 firefighter life safety initiatives were identified as part of the NFFF's National program to prevent firefighter deaths. The program is called "Everyone Goes Home" and is being implemented throughout the country! This program is one of the most critical learning experiences any fire service member can participate in !

North Texas has decided to join this cause !
