The Foundation salutes our first responders.

For more than 150 years Houston’s firefighters have answered the call. This is the Foundation’s thank you.

Houstonians rely on firefighters as first responders. For more than 150 years they have answered the call with a commitment to saving lives, and in the process kept the community and the people in it safe.

The Foundation exists to return some of that. Every dollar raised buys equipment the men and women of the department use on shift.
