Meet Our Board
The charity is run and administered by the Los Angeles Firemen’s Relief Association. All board members, with the exception of the Executive Director and Controller, are active or retired LAFD. With experience in program management, business, finance, healthcare, construction, strategic planning and, of course, firefighting, our trustees have a wide range of experience to guide the Widows, Orphans & Disabled Firefighter’s Fund.
