FFCB works with Haiti Groups
Since the initial quake in Haiti, FFCB has been working with local groups who are heading down to provide disaster assistance.
In the beginning, we worked with local firefighters and emergency workers who traveled to Haiti to help. We opened our equipment storage to provide what ever could be used. From medical supplies we have accumulated from various sources to Drink water paks and True North pak systems donated by True North Inc. ,they were able to go to Haiti and make a difference.
This local group has since formed it's own entity called Disaster Relief Northwest and has begun working in partnership with NOAH, a non profit based in Haiti. It's through NOAH that they are able to work in the country.
Firefighters Crossing Borders has agreed to provide fiscal responsibility as a IRS 501c3 non profit, which will allow donations to be tax deductible when given to Disaster Relief Northwest.
We can now take donations through the website and all donations to FFCB will continue to be used 100% toward mission operations. We do not compensate any director or instructor, and have no ongoing management expense other than maintaining our website.
