Impact

Working together to provide essential, life-saving support to the community

Our Impact Together

Your generous donations have enabled the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department (SDFD) to provide essential, life-saving support to the community all year long. Equipped with the necessary resources, SDFD personnel have carried out their duties with the utmost excellence, keeping our community safe. The continued impact of your support is evidenced by the following highlights:

Cordico Wellness APP

The Fire Rescue Foundation, in partnership with the Medtronics Foundation, collaborated with the SDFD Health & Safety Division to underwrite the development and launch of the CordicoFire wellness app. CordicoFire provides SDFD personnel mobile access to a wide range of wellness programs and services, including a "Wellness Toolkit" covering topics like family support, financial fitness, healthy habits, psychological first aid, and marriage guidance. The app also features self-assessment tools that allow users to obtain feedback on their overall wellness quickly. This free app is available to all current SDFD employees, their families, and SDFD retirees.

Youth Fire Technology Programs

The Foundation funded over $16,000 in new equipment and supplies for two local youth fire technology programs. Thanks to a generous grant from SDG&E and thoughtful donations from an anonymous donor, we were able to provide funding to support fire technology programs at Lincoln High School and Health Sciences High & Middle College.
