In fact, our name came from an arrangement whereby the Company paid ten percent of profits into a fund to benefit widows and orphans of San Francisco volunteer firefighters. Although that arrangement was later dissolved, the name and commitment to philanthropy have remained.

In keeping with the tradition that gave Fireman's Fund its name, in 1953 we established the Fireman's Fund Foundation, an independent charitable organization, to support human needs as well as educational, cultural and community activities. Since then the Foundation has donated more than $32 million to nonprofit organizations.

Our current Corporate Giving Program supports human needs and educational activities by awarding grants annually to agencies located in Marin County, Sonoma County and Contra Costa County of California.

The interests of Fireman's Fund often coincide with the needs of society because thriving, socially stable communities are the bedrock of success. Our Corporate Giving Program is the direct link to helping improve the quality of life in our local communities.
