Brothers and Sisters,
As fires continue to rage across parts of California, thousands of IAFF members are answering the call, working tirelessly on the front lines to protect Greater Los Angeles. Some will return to find their own homes claimed by these devastating fires.
The IAFF is helping our brothers and sisters in need through our Disaster Relief operations. We are providing critical assistance, including essential supplies, behavioral health support, financial aid, and access to work crews for those affected by the wildfires.
We have already received requests for help and the number will grow as families return and the full extent of the damage becomes clear.
These relief efforts are made possible by generous donations to the IAFF Foundation. Your tax-deductible donation will directly support our members as they recover from this devastating event.
Please consider making a contribution today to support our brothers and sisters in their time of need.
Donate today with a tax-deductible contribution online.
Sincerely,
Edward A. Kelly General President
