D C Firefighters Burn Foundation

Our mission is to prevent burns & improve quality of life of burn survivors through programs, education, & research. We support firefighters who have been hospitalized by burn injuries in performance of their duties as well as their families such as transportation, lodging, and meals for family members that have loved ones in the burn center. We help fund the burn center at the washington hospital center, the only adult burn treatment center in the washington, dc area. We send & accompany young burn survivors from the dc area every summer to the children's burn camp in connecticut. We provide burn education & prevention programs for citizens and firefighters. This includes a recent program specific to the senior population within the district. We share in the rehabilitation of recovery of burn survivors and their families through a wide variety of survivor support programs.
