ASSIST LA FIREFIGHTERS FAMILIES

[ldrco195 17]

Information From LAFRA Site: WWW.LAFRA.COM

During major disasters, some firefighters lose their own homes or must worry about the safety of their own families, while they are out protecting other people's lives and property. Yet, it never shows. Firefighters frequently spend days on the front lines in need of clean socks, underwear, deodorant, toothpaste, and warm blankets. Luckily, groups such as the Red Cross and Salvation Army provide support and help to both firefighters and disaster victims. To help those involved in the Southern California Wildfires, please click on the links below.

Please note due to sanitary regulations as well as storage and delivery limitations, food and hard goods are NOT accepted. The greatest need is for monetary donations and gift cards (to places such as Target, WALMART, Sears, JCPenney) that sell the above mentioned goods.

For donations to help our retired and active duty firefighters facing times of crisis, click on the word DONATE or the DONATION BADGE on the home page of this web site.
