Dear FireGrantsHelp Member,

We're proud to announce our team at FireGrantsHelp has provided critical assistance to more than 2,500 departments during the 2012 Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG) process — and we're still hard at work with SAFER. If your department hasn't applied for SAFER yet, join the thousands of fire departments already getting help from us by requesting grant writing assistance.

Also in this newsletter, we explain how SAFER can benefit volunteer and combination departments and steps you can take to prepare for AFG 2013.
