Cancer is the leading cause of death for firefighters. FireK's mission is to provide immediate financial assistance to firefighting families battling cancer, individually, and without reservation.
Join us for our fundraising 5K Run and 1 Mile Fun Run! This family event includes a Fun Zone with bouncy houses, a fire safety house, face painting, food and more.
Mission 61 is a FireK campaign to raise awareness of the fact that 61% of firefighter deaths between 2002-2016 were caused by cancer. We challenge runners and walkers to join forces and log 6,100 km collectively to draw attention to this alarming trend.
Your generous contributions will help FireK provide financial support to firefighters or their immediate family members battling cancer and preemptive cancer screenings for firefighters.
We partner with many sponsors for our annual 5K fundraising run. We sincerely thank all of our sponsors who help us with both financial support and in-kind donations. Take a look at our Platinum and Gold sponsors.
