Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
BURN SURVIVORTHE FOUNDATION SUPPORTS BURN SURVIVORS OF ALL AGES AND IN ALL STAGES OF RECOVERY. THE FOUNDATION'S DEEP COMMITMENT TO SUPPORTING BURN SURVIVORS GOES BACK TO THE VERY BEGINNINGS OF THE FOUNDATION. IN MORE THAN THREE DECADES OF WORK, THE FOUNDATION HAS DISCOVERED OVER AND OVER THAT THOSE WITH LIFE-ALTERING BURN INJURIES ARE VICTORS NOT VICTIMS. FROM BIKE RIDES AND GOLF INVITATIONS TO YOUTH LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES AND A SIGNATURE SUMMER CAMP FOR BURN-INJURED YOUTH, THE FOUNDATION WORKS TIRELESSLY IN PARTNERSHIP WITH BURN CENTERS ACROSS THE STATE TO DELIVER MUCH NEEDED CONTINUATION OF CARE THAT HELP THOSE SERVED TO NOT JUST SURVIVE, BUT THRIVE.
FIRE PREVENTIONPREVENTING FIRES AND BURNS THROUGH EDUCATION AND RISK MITIGATION. THE FOUNDATION HAS PROVEN THAT FIRE SAFETY AND PREVENTION PROGRAMS WORK: OVER THE PAST 30 YEARS, THE NUMBER OF FIRE RELATED DEATHS IN WISCONSIN HAS BEEN CUT IN HALF AND DEATHS AMONG CHILDREN HAVE BEEN REDUCED BY MORE THAN 80%. STILL, SIGNIFICANT RISKS REMAIN. SMOKE ALARMS SAVE LIVES, YET TOO MANY PEOPLE LIVE WITHOUT WORKING ALARMS. ESCAPE PLANS HELP PEOPLE PREPARE, YET BUSY FAMILIES OFTEN FAIL TO CHECK THIS ITEM OFF THE TO-DO LIST. THE SYNTHETIC MATERIALS THAT NOW MAKE UP HOMES AND FURNITURE MEAN A HOUSE CAN BE ENGULFED IN AS LITTLE AS THREE MINUTES, BUT PEOPLE TOO OFTEN THINK "IT WON'T HAPPEN TO US."
FIRE FIGHTER AND COMMUNITY SUPPORTTHE FOUNDATION'S VISION IS FOR ALL THOSE SERVED TO BE HEALTHY, SAFE AND SUPPORTED IN THEIR LIVES AND IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. SO, WHILE THE FOUNDATION GRACIOUSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THE ONGOING SUPPORT OF GENEROUS VOLUNTEERS, DONORS, PARTNERS AND SPONSORS, THE FOUNDATION ALSO GIVES SMALL GRANTS, SPONSORSHIPS, DONATIONS AND MORE TO WORTHY ORGANIZATIONS AROUND THE STATE. WHEN THOSE WHO PROTECT AND SERVE ARE IN NEED, THE FOUNDATION WILL BE THERE. FIRE FIGHTERS WORK IN THE HEART OF EVERY COMMUNITY EVERY DAY TO KEEP THOSE THEY SERVE SAFE. WHEN WISCONSIN'S FIRE FIGHTERS ARE FACING PHYSICAL OR MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, PERSONAL TRAGEDY OR LOSS, OR OTHER CHALLENGES, IT IS OUR DUTY AND OUR HONOR TO HELP OUR BROTHERS, SISTERS, FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES IN NEED. FIRE FIGHTER SUPPORT PROGRAMS INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: DISASTER ASSISTANCE, WISCONSIN STATE FIRE FIGHTER'S MEMORIAL SUPPORT AND PROFESSIONAL FIRE FIGHTERS OF WISCONSIN HONOR GUARD.
