Quincy, MA – Grassroots political organization Firefighters & EMS Fund has announced their continued membership with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). NFPA is a global self-funded nonprofit organization, established in 1896, devoted to eliminating death, injury, property and economic loss due to fire, electrical and related hazards.
NFPA delivers information and knowledge through more than 300 consensus codes and standards, research, training, education, outreach and advocacy; and by partnering with others who share an interest in furthering their mission. Their mission is to “help save lives and reduce loss with information, knowledge and passion.”
“We are looking forward to another year as a member of the NFPA. One vital aspect of our grassroots movement is to collectively understand what issues matter to firefighters & EMS personnel and what they are facing while on duty. Engaging with this organization and their network allows us to be that much more hands-on and cognisant of how we can best help our first responders,” said Firefighters & EMS Fund’s Executive Director Nile Porter.
