Fire fighters work in the heart of every community every day to keep those they serve safe. When Wisconsin’s fire fighters are facing physical or mental health issues, personal tragedy or loss, or other challenges, it is our duty – and our honor – to help our brothers, sisters, families and communities in need. Fire fighter support programs include, but are not limited to: Disaster Assistance, Wisconsin State Fire Fighter’s Memorial Support and Professional Fire Fighters of Wisconsin Honor Guard.
Our Disaster Assistance Program provides immediate assistance to Fire Fighters and their families in their time of need including: line of duty death, severe illness or traumatic injury, treatment assistance, referrals to additional resources, and other traumatic personal situations.
Since launching the disaster assistance toolkit, we are pleased to have raised over $700k for fire fighters and their families during times of need.
We support the mission of the Wisconsin State Fire & EMS Memorial to maintain a memorial honoring all Fire Fighters in the State of Wisconsin – recognizing those who have given their lives as the ultimate sacrifice as well as honoring those who have and continue to serve their respective communities.
To assist and enhance their mission to render tribute and to honor our fallen brothers and sisters as well as to assist departments and locals in times of need; and to properly display and show respect toward the colors we fly and this proud profession we serve.
The Professional Fire Fighters of Wisconsin Charitable Foundation provides services and support to increase the health and safety of Fire Fighters. This includes initiatives to prevent duty related cancers, improve mental health, and increase overall health and wellness of our firefighters.
