The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation's mission is to honor America's fallen fire heroes; support their families, colleagues, and organizations; and work to reduce preventable firefighter death and injury. The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF) provides a number of programs and resources for the service. NFFF helps departments deal with the tragedy of losing a firefighter in the line of duty. The NFFF's Advocate Program supports the mission through influence and education. Passionate volunteers from every department type, rank, and experience fulfill the mission as an Advocate or an Advocate Fellow.
