Fundraising

Fundraising is a key component to PFRA. Without adequate funds, we are unable to participate and support the many projects we are involved with. All members pay dues which provides funds to govern the general and administrative costs of the organizations. All funds raised through our fundraising programs go directly to the programs we support. Donations from both private and corporate citizens are welcomed and appreciated.

Currently, we rely 100% on corporate donations for our major projects – the annual Plano Fire-Rescue Department awards event and our scholarship program. Corporate citizens may sponsor an individual award or scholarship. Corporate Sponsorships are available as well.  Each sponsored scholarship certificate will bear the sponsor’s name. Sponsors are invited to attend the award event or the scholarship presentation where they will be recognized. Sponsors are listed on this website. Corporate citizens may also make undesignated contributions that will allow us to provide funding to our smaller projects and to new projects as they become active.

If you wish to sponsor an annual firefighter award, sponsor a scholarship, or make an undesignated monetary or product donation to PFRA, please contact our treasurer or president. You can also make a tax-deductable donation right now, just by clicking the icon below.
