The San Diego County Firefighters Benevolent Fund is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (formerly known as CAL FIRE San Diego Benevolent Fund) dedicated to caring for those who answer the call. Founded by firefighters and community advocates, we stand behind our local firefighters and their families when they need us most.

We understand that a life of service does not shield anyone from personal hardship. When injury, illness, or tragedy strikes, we help ease the financial burden so firefighters and their families can focus on what matters most.

Our commitment extends to supporting the next generation and honoring those we have lost. Through educational opportunities for firefighter dependents and efforts to preserve the legacy of fallen firefighters, we care for our fire service community today and help build its future.

This work is made possible by people like you. Every donation, sponsorship, and act of support helps us show up for the people who show up for our communities.
