Fire Commission approves letter supporting Elisa Ann Rush Burn Foundation
Summary
The San Francisco Fire Commission unanimously approved a letter to Supervisor Safai endorsing the Elisa Ann Rush Burn Foundation and the Firefighters and Safety Education (FIFE) program, highlighting the programs role in school fire-safety education and asking for funding support.
The San Francisco Fire Commission voted unanimously Oct. 25 to send a letter to Supervisor Safai expressing support for the Elisa Ann Rush Burn Foundation and the Firefighters and Safety Education (FIFE) program.
The Commission Secretary read the letter into the record, signed by President Ken Cleveland, noting the programs work in San Francisco schools. The letter says in part that the foundation "provides students enrolled in the San Francisco School District with invaluable resources educating children in fire safety and burn prevention," and asks the supervisor to consider funding to sustain the program.
Commissioner Covington moved to send the letter and the motion received a second; the secretary recorded the vote as in favor by all present. Commissioners also praised volunteers who work in the FIFE program and encouraged additional department participation in the outreach effort.
The letter will be distributed to Supervisor Safai and other relevant offices as indicated by the Commission. No supplemental funding amount or budget source was specified in the meeting record.
