Dear Fire Fighter Supporters

I would like to personally take this opportunity to thank you for supporting your local firefighters. Your contribution will benefit firefighters throughout Fayetteville and Cumberland County. You show your support is not only for the fire fighters, but for your community as well.

The Fayetteville Fire Fighters Association represents local firefighters, who are employed by the fire department, in their efforts to take a pro-active approach to fire safety and community services. We are a non-profit professional organization; therefore, these pledges are not tax deductible for Federal tax purposes as a charitable contribution. But please be assured the Fayetteville firefighters and the community they serve will benefit from your support.

Pay Your Pledge

It is important to note that we represent the Career Professional Firefighters themselves (not the government agencies) and do not financially support any volunteer fire departments.

The firefighters of our nation are rated as having the number one most hazardous occupation in terms of death and injury. Working with the citizens of Fayetteville, perhaps we can change these statistics.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at 910-263-1334.

Once again, I thank you for your support. It is friends like you that make a difference.

Sincerely,
Frank Kocsis
President, Fayetteville Fire Fighters Association

Fayetteville Fire Fighters Safety Programs

Here is a look at some of the safety programs we continue to work on:

Fire Safety Coloring Books for elementary school kids in Cumberland
Camp Celebrate, a weekend camp for children ages 7-15 who have survived traumatic burn injuries; activities include swimming, canoeing, arts and crafts, as well as an opportunity to meet other kids who share the experience of having been burned
Support for the Fayetteville Honor Guard, group of current & retired firefighters & EMTs that perform at promotional/retirement/new recruits ceremonies, funerals for both active duty & retired personnel, & other special events -- honoring those who have served as First Responders.
Jaycee Burn Center, supporting the burn center at UNC Hospital where the firefighters go if they are injured on duty – it is also the best burn center in the state for children; assisting local families of burn victims with extraneous expenses, like traveling back-and-forth to the center.
Smoke Detector Program
Support for Muscular Dystrophy Association, Cancer’s Relay for Life, & St. Jude’s Research on a local level
Support for Youth Athletics Programs, helping to keep the youth off the streets and build character

The firefighters work on these programs while off duty and do not receive payment. Their goal is to cut down on the accidents and deaths caused by fire. Perhaps with your support, they will achieve this goal.
