The Calgary Firefighters Burn Treatment Society is managed and supported by firefighters who volunteer and dedicate their time. As with all other non-profit organizations we are facing an ever-increasing demand for limited resources and volunteer support.

There are many ways that you can help the CFBTS:

• Make a donation
• Purchase CFBTS Merchandise
• Get involved with one of our events by attending, sponsoring or volunteering
• Host your own fundraiser in support of CFBTS

WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES

The CFBTS has essentially no overhead or administrative costs and is managed and operated by firefighters who volunteer their time. At the conclusion of our annual campaign ending on November 30th; all money raised is presented to the Calgary Health Trust – Burn Unit Fund.

The Calgary Health Trust is the not-for-profit charitable arm of the Calgary Health Region. They are the middle party that represents the charity organization and ensures that our annual donation goes directly to the objectives set out by the CFBTS. They release the funds on a quarterly basis to the CHR, allowing them to use the money under the guidelines set out by the charity.

We designate that the funds be used to purchase new specialized equipment for the burn unit ensuring enhanced patient care. We also allow for the continuing education of burn treatment staff to remain current in new treatment techniques.
