Greetings, 

We are reaching out to our local community in hopes you will consider donating an auction item, raffle prize, gift certificate or in-kind product or service to one of our upcoming fundraisers. The Firefighters Burn Institute is a 501(c)3 non-profit charity run by firefighters and civilian staff whose mission is to provide recovery and reintegration programs to burn survivors of all ages and their families. 

This year the Firefighters Burn Institute is celebrating 50 years of providing free programs and services to the burn community. What began in 1973 with one person in a small corner office of the now historic Fire Station No. 9, FFBI has grown into one of the largest firefighter-run nonprofits in the nation. Your donation provides you the opportunity to support the Firefighters Burn Institute’s mission of serving burn survivors. All of our programs are offered free of charge to burn survivors who come from all over the USA and Mexico.

May 1, 2023: Birdies for Burns Golf Tournament fundraiser. Nestled among the rolling hills and woodlands in Placer County, this first class event is held at Catta Verdera Country Club in Lincoln, CA. A high-end raffle is held as part of this fundraiser, as well as a separate Pebble Beach raffle. Your donation of a high-end raffle item would be greatly appreciated.

June 24, 2023: Luau on the Links fundraiser. This Hawaiian Luau is an outdoor, strolling dinner event held at the Pavilion at Haggin Oaks. Complete with a whole roasted pig, tropical and traditional food grazing stations, dancing to live music, a silent auction and raffle, Hawaiian hula dancers, and a live fire show, your gift of an auction or raffle item will surely compliment this fun event.

Please mail your donation to the Firefighters Burn Institute, Attn: Sandy Acevedo 3101 Stockton Blvd., Sacramento, CA 95820 or contact us at (916) 739-8525 or sandy@ffburn.org to arrange a pickup, or if you have any additional questions. Thank you in advance for your thoughtfulness and generosity.
