FireRescue1 and Masimo Launch FireGrantsHelp.com to Simplify Grants Process for Fire and EMS Professionals

Web site to be most comprehensive database and resource for fire/EMS grants online

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - FireRescue1.com, a leading online resource for fire-rescue personnel, and Masimo Corporation, innovator of noninvasive pulse oximetry, have announced the launch of FireGrantsHelp.com, an unparalleled resource for grants information, resources and expertise to the first responder community.

The mission of FireGrantsHelp.com is to provide members of the first responder community with a comprehensive resource for grants information and assistance. FireGrantsHelp.com will feature the most extensive fire grants database ever created, with a library of information covering not only federal programs, but also state, local and corporate opportunities.

“Grants are a critical source of funding for fire and EMS departments across the country. Unfortunately, there are few comprehensive resources that provide first responders with thorough information about available grants and the tools to create successful applications,” said Alexander Ford, CEO of FireRescue1. “FireGrantsHelp.com will fill this gap and become the go-to destination for those searching for available grants as well as guidance on how to secure them. The aim of FireGrantsHelp.com is fully in line with FireRescue1’s mission to provide fire and EMS professionals with the widest possible array of resources to help them do their jobs better and more safely.”

FireGrantsHelp.com features a searchable grants database, as well as a wide range of grants news, announcements and tips. The site also features a comprehensive listing of reference materials and links. The site is designed to provide resources to those with varying levels of grants experience, from first-timers to grants veterans.

As it expands, FireGrantsHelp.com will also offer users an increasing number of grants assistance tools such as: research guidance, a grants discussion forum, case studies and insightful expert columns.
