"This is a basic guide to help Emergency Service Organizations (ESOs) obtain grant funding needed to sustain and improve operations. This guide will help your ESO find available sources of grant funding, identify the steps required to pursue grants, and provide guidance on some of the most popular grant programs."

"One source of funding that many emergency service organizations may overlook or not utilize to their fullest potential are grants. There are many private and public grants programs available but some agencies don’t seek them out because proposals can be time-consuming, grant writers are an extra expense or they don’t know where to start. But the impact a single grant could have could go far beyond a few hours of work or the cost of a grant writer (just federal programs have averaged around $700 million a year in funding!), and we’re here to help you get started."

"There are a number of IAFF training programs that are eligible for grant funding. These documents will assist your department with completing the application and provide many of the necessary narrative details"
