Our Burn Foundation is comprised of all non-paid volunteers and we are all Boston Firefighters. On our days off, we provide both emotional and financial support to burn victims and their families. We have a team that run fundraising events, who build a relationship with those in need, and provide services where needed.
Some of the services that we provide the victims and their families include but are not limited to lodging, clothing, meals, travel expenses, mortgage/rent payments, gifts during the holidays, and friendship.
We also host bi-weekly reintegration events through Team Brave in partnership with Shriners Hospitals for Children as well as Christmas in July each year.
The Boston Firefighters Burn Foundation was created and recognized as a non-profit in July 2003. Its board is made of dedicated volunteers in unpaid positions who actually pay to be members of The High Five Club.
