Make a Donation

Give local

Every dollar stays in Southern Marin.

Your donation directly funds emergency assistance, scholarships, youth sponsorships, and wildfire safety work for our neighbors — administered by the firefighters who know this community best.

Where your donation goes

When you give to a Foundation event or the general fund, here’s how it’s allocated:

  • 50% Charitable Giving & Programs

  • 15% Health & Wellness

  • 15% Non-covered Station Needs

  • 10% Maintenance & Repairs of Foundation Property

  • 10% Administrative & Operating Expenses

Donations given to a specific program — e.g., “Vegetation Clearance & Home Hardening” — go entirely to that program rather than this general split.

Prefer to give by check?

Make checks payable to “Southern Marin Fire Foundation” and mail to 28 Liberty Ship Way, Sausalito, CA 94965.

The Southern Marin Fire Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. EIN 04-3820590. Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
