The CFS Foundation provides financial assistance to CFS volunteer firefighters and their families who have suffered through death, injury, loss or damage of property while in the line of service.
The South Australian Country Fire Service (CFS), is the state's key community organisation, responding to bushfire, building fire, road crash rescue, and hazardous material spills.
Established in 1976, its vision has always been to provide trusted and effective community-based fire and emergency services, contributing to building safer and more resilient communities.
Thanks to their wonderful volunteers, they dedicate more than 3 million hours to ensure safety and support for all regional communities. Working alongside the SA Metropolitan Fire Service and State Emergency Service, the CFS attend to incidents including:
- bushfires and grass fires
- building and motor vehicle fires
- road crash rescue
- hazardous material spills (HazMat)
