The Season of Giving

On December 2, the world unites in the spirit of generosity for Giving Tuesday. This Giving Tuesday—and through the end of the year—we invite you to give back to those who always give: San Diego County firefighters.

Your gift to FirefighterAid helps us support the heroes who selflessly serve our communities every day. Be a hero to a hero.

When firefighters face injury, illness, or tragedy, FirefighterAid is there. Your generosity powers programs that truly make a difference—from cancer support and mental wellness resources to medical hardship grants and assistance for surviving spouses.

This season, your support becomes more than a donation—it becomes a lifeline. Thank you for standing with those who stand ready for all of us.
