Overview

Mission

C.f.f.a is a labor union organized to elevate fire fighting as a profession by improving its members' skill, efficiency, physical & moral condition.

What it reported doing in 2024

To serve a membership of active and retiree fire fighters with regards to issues with employment and wage representation. Also to serve as an outlet for such members to contribute to charitable and political organizations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
