The San Diego Fire-Rescue Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by former firefighters and community leaders committed to public safety.
Since 2005, we have served as a trusted partner to the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department by funding critical needs that fall outside the city budget.
Our mission is to strengthen the department’s ability to protect our community by providing enhanced equipment, training, technology, and essential public education and program resources.
Tax-deductible donations to the San Diego Fire-Rescue Foundation directly support San Diego’s firefighters, lifeguards, and specialty divisions.
Please join us in supporting those who risk their lives to protect ours.
The San Diego Fire-Rescue Foundation hosts events year-round to support the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department.
Funds from events ensure top-notch training, equipment and resources for fire-rescue personnel. Join us at our next event to make a difference in San Diego's safety.
The San Diego Fire-Rescue Department allocates approximately 85% of its budget to salaries and benefits, resulting in funding shortfalls for equipment and training programs.
The San Diego Fire-Rescue Foundation raises funds to address these needs and support the safety of our personnel. Your contribution can help us bridge the funding gaps and strengthen public safety in San Diego.
Donate to San Diego Fire-Rescue Foundation and improve public safety. Your contribution benefits the community by providing better equipment, training, and resources for firefighters, lifeguards, and paramedics.
As a 501(c)(3) charity, your donation is tax-deductible and directly enhances the safety and well-being of San Diego.
