VAUGHAN PROFESSIONAL FIRE FIGHTERS ASSOCIATION
Although all Firefighters want an efficiently run Fire Service, let us not lose sight of the fact that such efficiency must not come at the expense of the Firefighter’s safety, livelihood or dignity.
VPFFA Benevolent Fund
The Vaughan Professional Fire Fighters Benevolent Fund was started in 1992 to raise money for local charities on behalf of the members of the Vaughan Professional Fire Fighters Association. Over the years we have donated thousands of dollars to hospitals, community groups, burn units and other organizations within our community. Our members are proud to participate in helping improve the lives of the people we protect beyond the emergency work we do.
Our annual events include a Christmas Magic Show, the "Battle of the Badges" hockey game in the spring, a summer car wash and a Muscular Dystrophy Boot Drive on the Labour Day weekend. The money raised is sent to the various charities by the Chairman of the Benefits Group.
You can help by coming to one of our events or by a direct donation to the Vaughan Professional Fire Fighters Benevolent Fund. It is through the generosity of the citizens of Vaughan and the surrounding communities that our Benefits Groups is able to carry out the good work that it does. Please show your support for our Firefighters and our community by giving generously.
