Support the Texas State Fire Fighters Emergency Relief and College Scholarship Fund

Your generosity to our emergency relief and college scholarship programs can make a real difference in the lives of Texas firefighters and their families in their times of need.

When natural disasters and other incidents affect our firefighter members, especially when they’re affected while on duty or deployed elsewhere, TSAFF provides relief to eligible applicants.

With our college scholarship fund, we provide an extra boost each year to 10 Texas firefighter families with college-bound students. Our scholarship committee reviews applications and awards scholarships to five girls and five boys annually.

Every donation to the Texas State Fire Fighters Emergency Relief and College Scholarship Fund, no matter how large or small, supports firefighter families around the state. Thank you for your support.
