Recent Grants in Brief

Members of the Nassau County Junior Firefighters Association (NCJFA) were photographed near the Fireman's Fund table at the Association's "Safe Kids Day," which was held on Sunday, April 13 in Westbury, NY. A Fireman's Fund Heritage grant of $5,900 to the NCJFA helped to pay for the event, which provided education on fire safety, fire prevention, and other types of safety measures to local children and the general public.
