ENGINE 343

is a registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation dedicated to the well-being of the fire department family; for recognition of the unique sacrifices that firefighters and their families selflessly make for the sake of all; and to honor those sacrifices. The central focus of the Foundation is assisting the families of firefighters in their times of greatest need, in transporting firefighters, family members and department personnel to and from medical institutions both for care and family support. We also are dedicated to the comfort and support of the families of firefighters in their times of bereavement. Our immediate aim is to minimize the negative impact of injuries and fatalities that members of the fire family endure, by providing vehicles and transportation assistance, in conjunction with the Fire Department of the City of New York. On a broader scale, we are dedicated to the good of the community in building awareness of the often-overlooked needs of the fire department family.

The Foundation is all-volunteer, entirely non-profit, and depends on donations of equipment, funds and service to carry out its mission. The Foundation has, through donations, acquired a fleet of vehicles that are commissioned to the Fire Department and are available around the clock to provide transportation services throughout the City of New York and environs. The Foundation also assists fire families in funeral details, tributes and memorials, to preserve the honor of their sacrifices. The Foundation also joins to support other organizations and endeavors in the broader community, in honor of all who serve in the same spirit.

The first few months to the New Year have been busy. We have some changes to our Executive Board. Joe Drennan has stepped down from the Treasurers spot.

Mike Legge is moving to the Advisory Board and Eugene Stolowski will take over the Secretary’s duties. Rich Cannon will be a Firefighters Representative and Bobby Fraumeni will be a Retired Firefighters Representative.

The FDNY Burn Center Foundation has ordered a new Van for us that will be handicap accessible. This van should be in service by the end of Spring. We have also purchased a 1946 Mack Pumper to be used in funerals. We should have the rig in a couple of months and we hope to have it in service by the end of the year. We would like to thank all of you for your continued support. We would not be able to help everyone that we do with out your support.

Thank you
