🎒 Supporting Our Community — On and Off the Fireground 🚒

The Kearny Firefighters Foundation was proud to donate school supplies and funding for additional backpacks to support our community’s school supply drive.

For Kearny’s firefighters, serving this community has always meant more than responding when the alarm sounds. We live here, work here, raise our families here, and care deeply about the people we serve.

Whether it’s answering an emergency, supporting a local family in need, helping our schools, participating in community events, or simply lending a hand where we can, Kearny firefighters are proud to be part of this community every single day.

We hope these supplies help make the start of the school year a little easier and more exciting for Kearny students and their families.

🔥 Our commitment to Kearny doesn’t end when the call is over.

Kearny Firefighters Foundation
Neighbors. Firefighters. Community.
