www.wffoundation.org/"If you enjoy the wildlands of our country,
if you watch the news and think of the men and women who risk their lives to keep the rest of us safe,
if you were a firefighter or are now a firefighter,
if you know a firefighter,
if you wonder about what can be done to help,
then we would encourage you to contribute to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation." The Wildland Firefighter Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that has established and maintains the Wildland Firefighters National Monument at the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) in Boise, Idaho.
The Foundation also provides emergency support services to the families of injured and fallen firefighters. This emergency help can come in many different ways. Families left behind, many with young children, often find themselves with few resources, and the Foundation steps in to help.
The Foundation came together as a group of volunteers in 1994, shortly after the Storm King tragedy. With dedication and lots of volunteer work, plans were developed for a national monument to honor firefighters, a dream that was realized in May 2000. The Wildland Firefighter Foundation was officially formed in the spring of 1999. Our board members realized that there was a great need to have emergency support services for the families of fallen firefighters.
