My Nonprofit Reviews

The Jersey City Fire Foundation was born of a discussion about how to assist the department with training, development, and giving college-bound students a running start with scholarships. In its 14 years of existence, the Foundation has secured specialized equipment, needed firehouse supplies, and scholarship awards to high school seniors entering college.

Growth albeit slow is moving closer to our mission through fundraising, grants, and donations. The inclusive mix of board members assures a balance between department personnel and civilian inputs. Various events and planning are taking the Foundation mainstream and with public/private partnerships forged, I'm confident we will meet our goals and objectives as outlined in our yearly, as well as our long-term mission forecast.
