Who We Are
Our Mission
Support and protect the health, safety and welfare of Houston firefighters and their families, and the communities we serve.
About the Foundation
Houston firefighters deliver excellent service, are good stewards of city resources, and give back to the community. But firefighters and their families sometimes need a helping hand too. The Foundation is dedicated to helping firefighters and their families and others in the community in their times of need.
Our Structure
Founded in 2013, our Foundation is managed by a board of directors that includes Houston firefighters and civilians. Our bylaws mandate that directors of the Houston Professional Fire Fighters Association always constitute the majority of the foundation board of directors. The Foundation also relies on an advisory board that includes local business and community leaders each of which has provided important support to the Foundation.
Our Recent Activities and Plans
In recent years, the Foundation has provided:
- Financial relief for firefighters facing extraordinary medical expenses.
- Financial relief for firefighters with residential damage or losses due to natural disasters.
- Firefighting and/or EMS equipment not provided by the city.
- Winter jackets for local children through Operation Warm.
- College scholarship funds for local high school students through our annual 9/11 Memorial Golf Tournament.
- Cooperation with the charitable foundations of the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) and the Texas State Association of Fire Fighters (TSAFF).
