FOSF was founded to bring community involvement & support to SFD fire service personnel & family Reach out if you'd like to sponsor a station meal!
We founded Friends of Springfield Fire in 2022 with our sights set on fostering a community that is continually and wholeheartedly responsive to celebrating and supporting the needs of Springfield Firefighters and their families. We had an inside view to some of the struggles firefighters face, both on shift and at home, because some calls linger far beyond when they actually end. We all know that

Alright A-shift. If you can, clear some space in those refrigerators while you are on this 48! We will be delivering Cesar's Old Mexico on Wednesday with all of the reheating instructions for your Thanksgiving Day feast.
Friends of Springfield Fire wants to love on your family that joins you at the station, so we are sending plenty of extras!
Firefighters - it's that special time of year again, and we're so excited to show a little extra love and gratitude for everything you do.
We thought mixing it up a little would be nice, so Cesar's Old Mexico will be delivered to each station for Thanksgiving! More details to come soon.
Attention Springfield Firefighters:
We promised CANCER SCREENING, and we are here to deliver.
This is only possible because of the many generous donors of the Springfield Community who knew that investing in the health of our firefighters was crucial.
We have started our phased rollout of the screening, and we are working our way down the seniority list to those who have 5 years and greater on the department.
What we need from you:
A personal email address or cell phone number to send the information for obtaining the screening kit - this will help us ensure a smooth process once we reach your spot on the list. Feel free to add your information to this post, send us a dm, or email us at [email protected]
Eligibility:
Use of Galleri is not recommended in individuals who are pregnant, 21 years old or younger, or undergoing active cancer treatment.

Let's talk about another sponsor while we are still basking in the aftermath of a successful Awards Ceremony. Bourbon Society of the Ozarks. As mentioned at the Awards Ceremony - BSO has partnered with us on several occasions to make sure our SFD Firefighters know they are loved and supported. We are grateful for the partners they are. They constantly find ways to be involved, and to show their love and support. A few of their admin team was in attendance Monday night to celebrate all of you! Thank you BSO for all you do ❤️

Our family feels that dinner together is one of life’s simplest yet most meaningful joys. Around the table, we gather not just to eat, but to connect, laugh, and create lasting memories. Whether it’s a holiday meal filled with laughter and stories or a regular weeknight dinner with casual conversation, these moments bring us closer. The clinking of glasses, the passing of dishes, and the exchange of stories create a sense of warmth and belonging. It’s around the table that we celebrate life’s milestones, comfort each other in tough times, and build traditions that are cherished for years to come. These meals remind us that it’s not just the food, but the company we keep, that makes the time so special.
There are 73 firefighters on shift today. Countless friends and family will travel to the station to share a Thanksgiving meal with their loved ones. I can not thank Texas Roadhouse enough for agreeing to cater this special meal. Brittany and Johnny stepped up to the plate in a big way. The level of support they extended for over 200 firefighters, friends, and families is deeply appreciated.
We also want to recognize Hyvee for catering the ham to round out the holiday meal. No meal is complete without the main dish!
Our hope is that this meal brings a little warmth and joy to your Thanksgiving. Your courage, sacrifice, and commitment do not go unnoticed, and we are deeply grateful for everything you do to keep us safe.
We wish you a safe and restful holiday season. From our family to yours, thank you for your incredible service and for being the backbone of our community.
❤️ Friends of Springfield Fire

We have accounted for each firefighter to have two additional people. For example, we are sending food for 27 people to Station 1. Food will be delivered on Wednesday!
