San Diego Fire-Rescue Foundation

This essential safety equipment can be the difference between life and death.

We are on a mission to provide every firefighter in the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department (SDFD) with a combat application tourniquet, a crucial life-saving tool during wildfire emergencies.

Join us in raising $35,000 to purchase 1,000 tourniquets and ensure the safety of our brave firefighters as they work tirelessly to protect our lives and property.

Why Tourniquets are Vital for SDFD Firefighters

Every $35 donation funds one tourniquetFirefighting is an inherently dangerous job, and the risk of injury increases significantly when battling wildfires. Firefighters must work in close proximity to personnel operating chainsaws, creating an increased risk of life-threatening injuries. Quick access to a tourniquet can make all the difference in stopping uncontrolled bleeding and saving a life.

By providing each SDFD firefighter with a personal combat application tourniquet, we can ensure that they are always prepared for emergencies. Our firefighters have already been trained in tourniquet application, including self-application, making this campaign a crucial step in enhancing their safety on the job.

How Your Contributions Make a Difference

Your generous donation will help us reach our goal of purchasing 1,000 tourniquets, ensuring that every SDFD firefighter has access to this life-saving tool while battling wildfires. By supporting this campaign, you are not only contributing to the safety and well-being of our firefighters but also expressing gratitude for their unwavering dedication to protecting our community.

Together, we can make a significant impact on the safety of our dedicated firefighters in the line of duty.
