Description

We are reaching out in hopes you will consider donating a raffle prize or gift card to our “Fill the Boot for Burns” annual fundraiser being held February 8-11, 2024. The Firefighters Burn Institute is a 501(c) 3 non-profit charity run by firefighters and civilian staff whose mission is to provide burn recovery programs for burn survivors of all ages, and their families.

 

Each year, rain or shine, hundreds of active and retired firefighters volunteer their time to “Fill the Boot for Burns” and collect donations from passing motorists and pedestrians, all proceeds directly benefit the Firefighters Burn Institute. To thank our firefighters for volunteering their time, we offer prizes donated by local businesses like yours. Would you be so kind as to provide a prize or gift card for our firefighters?

 

Your generosity supports our fundraising efforts for the following programs:

 

Little Heroes Preschool Burn Camp (ages 3-6) and Firefighters Kids Camp (ages 6-17)
Adult Burn Survivors Recovery Retreat and support groups
Liaison Response Team (firefighters supporting burn-injured firefighters and their families)
Youth Firesetter Intervention Program and fire prevention school assemblies
 

Please mail your donation to the Firefighters Burn Institute, Attn: Sandy Acevedo/Boot Drive, 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.
