One of the Greater Tucson Fire Foundation’s commitments is to provide a bridge between firefighters’ needs and the limits of public spending.
For more than 100 years, area firefighters have answered the call to save lives and protect property in Tucson and surrounding communities. Today, we serve firefighters throughout Southern Arizona — from the fast-growing desert town of Marana, north of Tucson … all the way south to the rolling grasslands of Sierra Vista — and from Tohono O’odham tribal land west of Tucson … and through the city east to the rural town of Vail.
