Founding Father, Firefighter and Philadelphian, Benjamin Franklin knew: most fires and burns can be prevented!

The Burn Foundation develops fire and burn safety and education programs that first responders, safety professionals and teachers can use in their communities.

We do direct education for those groups at greatest risk from burn injuries including preschool children, elementary students, adolescents, and senior citizens.  Our active learning guides give parents, trainers and teachers a variety of activities to practice with audiences of all ages.  We make Burn Prevention fun.

Check out our different resources or talk with one of our staff to arrange technical assistance or a program that fits your particular needs.
