Your Tickets Support Our Community

The IAFF Local 1605 Foundation was created in 2005 by 143 professional firefighters serving Hagerstown and Washington County. Its mission is to give back to the community beyond emergency response.

Since then, the Foundation has donated more than $2.5 million to local nonprofits and charities.

In 2026 alone, the Foundation has already donated $123,850 to 25 charities and nonprofit organizations.

Support has included:

A $40,000 gift to Children’s Village
A $60,000 van to help transport cancer patients
Local community programs that improve health, safety, and quality of life.
