In 2014, we introduced the ā€œAnnual OMFPOA Symposium Sponsorship Program”.Ā  Since then, several members have had the privilege of receiving this sponsorship which has allowed them to attend the annual symposium free of charge. With the ongoing objective of ā€œgiving back to our membersā€, the OMFPOA Executive would like to introduce the ā€œFire Prevention and Public Education Grantā€.

The objective of the ā€œFire Prevention and Public Education Grantā€ is to donate three $1000.00 grants to 3 (three) fire departments in good standing with the OMFPOA.Ā  The grant money awarded to the Fire Department is intended to be used solely for a fire prevention and public education initiative and/or program.Ā 

The OMFPOA Executive encourages you to take advantage of this grant opportunity. We would like to assist the membership with its ongoing efforts toward ā€œPublic Education and Fire Preventionā€. The grant application will be reviewed by the OMFPOA Executive and once selected, the grant money will be presented at the Annual Training and Education Symposium.
