Overview
Mission
The foundation solicits, manages and distributes funds advancing the interests of urban, rural, wildland volunteer and paid firefighters, both active and retired. The foundation meets their needs related to the hazardous duty consequences of modern firefighting.
What it reported doing in 2025
The foundation assisted timber mesa fire and medical following theline-of-duty deaths of two firefighters. We raised funds to payfuneral costs, family lodging and related bereavement expenses.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 78% of its reported program spending out as grants.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
