California Fire Foundation is currently accepting applications for its Wildfire Disaster Relief & Recovery Grant—a funding opportunity offering up to $25,000 for fire departments, firefighter associations, nonprofits and tribal organizations in Los Angeles, including Pacific Palisades.
“When wildfires strike, they leave behind not just physical destruction, but long-lasting impacts on families, first responders and local infrastructure,” according to a statement about the program. “This grant supports long-term wildfire recovery efforts, funding projects that strengthen community resilience, help rebuild critical services and ensure our firefighters are equipped for future emergencies.”
Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, local fire departments and firefighter associations, and federally recognized tribes.
Funding priorities include community relief and recovery, recovery planning, public education and community outreach, first responder training, vegetation management and fuels reduction, and more.
“Established in 1987 by California Professional Firefighters, the California Fire Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing emotional and financial support to fallen firefighters’ families, active fire personnel and the communities they protect,” according to a statement. “Programs include victim assistance, community preparedness and memorial projects honoring the fallen.”
