The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF) will join in the observance of International Firefighters Day on May 4, 2022. International Firefighters Day began on May 4, 1999, after the deaths of five Australian firefighters in a wildland fire. It is a day to recognize  the hard work, strength, bravery and far too often personal sacrifice of firefighters and emergency service personnel worldwide as well as a way to say Thank You for helping to keep our communities safe.

The NFFF is asking the public to, "Shine Your Light For Firefighters,"  on May 4, 2022, by lighting your homes in red.
