Grassroots organization connecting local residents to neighborhood fire stations. Dedicated to being “Friends of the Fire Department and Fire Service,” the FIRST-IN FIRE FOUNDATION is sparked by a strong grass roots commitment to a well respected tradition of connecting local citizens to their local fire stations. No Station left behind. Our mission is dedication to friend-raising and fund-raising for the Fire Service and the Fire Department, its firefighters, services, and programs including the Fire Department’s Adopt A Fire Station Program, Fire Safety Education, C.E.R.T. (Community Emergency Response Training) and Emergency Preparedness, including Pet Preparedness. Founded February 24, 2008, the FIRST-IN FIRE FOUNDATION is an independent 501(C) 3 Public Benefit Corporation.
