Supporting the critical life saving work of the FDNY
The FDNY Foundation supports the critical life saving work of the Fire Department of New York (FDNY).

Each year the FDNY Foundation, in conjunction with the FDNY, supports various projects and programs including: FDNY Fire Zone, a state of the art fire safety learning center; Fire Zone on the Road, a fire safety outreach campaign; fire safety public awareness campaigns; and The Family Assistance Program, which provides assistance to the families of fallen firefighters.
