The IAFF Burn Foundation is dedicated to burn prevention and education, burn research and improving the quality of life for burn survivors. Created in 1982, the Burn Foundation is now the largest non-governmental source for burn research grants and the sponsor of the annual IAFF National Children's Burn Camp, held each fall in Washington, DC.


History

Burns are one of the most horrific assaults that can be inflicted on the human body. As professional fire fighters, the IAFF and its 280,000 members understand this fact better than most. We recognize the tremendous need to assist the more than 2.5 million people, including fire fighters and emergency responders, who are burned each year. That is why in 1982, the IAFF formed the IAFF Burn Foundation, and why the Foundation has been the driving force behind nearly every burn safety advance in the fire and emergency services for the last 25 years.
