Our Mission
The Junior Firefighter Youth Foundation (JFFYF) was founded in 2003, by Captain Brent Burton. Captain Burton is a career fire service professional, with over 30 years of experience with the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
The JFFYF is a community based and educational operation that assists various schools within the greater Los Angeles County region. Our two collaborating organizations are the African American Firefighter Museum and the Stentorians of the Los Angeles County and City Fire Departments.
The Foundation provides services on the campuses of several elementary and high schools, by providing a Junior Fire Cadet Program and Future Firefighter Program.

TESTIMONIALS
If you really must know. Capt. Burton is the realest most humble warrior when it comes to doing community outreach. I've met current Firefighters with 10+ years on the job; who he has also taught- in this program back when they were in elementary school.
Justin Collins, Supporter
The greatest mind is that of children wanting to learn how to serve their community. The Foundation brings that outside the box thinking to the forefront!
