Country Fire Service Foundation

Give a One Off Donation Give a Regular Donation
The Country Fire Service (CFS) Chief Officer, Euan Ferguson and Metropolitan Fire Service (MFS) Acting Chief Officer, Mick Smith today extended their heartfelt sympathy to the Victorian community and are assisting with the bushfire fight.

The South Australian Country Fire Service (CFS) is a community of highly trained volunteer emergency workers who freely give their time to protect others in the community.

Some 15,000 firefighters, cadets and support personnel provide the fabric of "service to the community", offering firefighting, rescue and hazardous material response to regional and rural South Australia.

The CFS Foundation was formed in 2000 to accept donations from the public and make grants to CFS volunteers who have experienced distress or hardship as a consequence of their CFS activities. The CFS Foundation - helping those who help the community.

How will the funds be used?

CFS volunteers seek no contribution for their efforts, and inmost cases, the volunteers contribute more than just their time. Volunteers have suffered loss during large fires, along with other members of the community, and the CFS Foundation facilitates the distribution of donations from members of the public, corporate citizens and other contributors to those who have suffered distress whilst protecting others in the community.

Key Areas of Expenditure

Relief of suffering experienced by volunteers as a result of their CFS activities
To enhance the firefighting capacity and expertise among volunteer firefighters
To increase public awareness of contributions to communities made by volunteer fire brigades.

Are donations tax deductible? No

Will I receive a receipt for my donation?
Yes, immediately sent to you by email when approved.
