Message from the Director

One of our biggest fundraisers of the year, “Firefighter’s Tropical Affair”, is just around the corner so please mark your calendars for Saturday, June 28th, 2014!  The “Firefighter’s Tropical Affair” is quickly becoming one of Sacramento’s premier events and our 3rd annual fundraiser is sure to be the biggest and best yet.  You won’t want to miss this fun filled evening with Sacramento’s finest restaurants, breweries and wineries!

In addition to this event, I encourage you to attend the other special events and fundraisers we host throughout the year such as our Boot Drive, Crab Feed and 1st Alarm Chilli Cook-Off just to name a few.  Events like these are a fun way to get together with your friends and raise money for a good cause all at the same time.

Thank you for your continued support and I look forward to seeing you all at the “Firefighter’s Tropical Affair” in June!!!

Sincerely,

Jim Doucette
Executive Director, Firefighters Burn Institute
Retired Captain, Sacramento Fire Department
