In Las Vegas and Southern Nevada, hundreds of children and adults are affected by burns, fire, and other catastrophic events. These scars must be worn physically and emotionally for the rest of their lives, but they are not alone. After a devastating call, firefighters contact a representative of the Firefighters of Southern Nevada Burn Foundation to provide assistance to the victim/family affected.
The Firefighters of Southern Nevada Burn Foundation, staffed by active firefighters, provides critical support to burn survivors and families affected by fires and catastrophic events.
