Rural Fire Brigades Association Queensland — Charity of the Month Recipient for February 2022
Rural Fire Brigades Association Queensland (RFBAQ) is the Queensland association that leads and represents the interests of more than 1,400 brigades and over 28,000 volunteers (both firefighters and support members) in Queensland.
RFBAQ volunteers are out there ‘Fighting the Good Fight’ and focused on protecting rural Queensland, which represents 93% of the state’s land area. In-country towns and tiny remote settlements, more than 1,400 brigades stand ready to respond. Not only do they respond to fire, but almost any other threat to the well-being of their local communities.
In addition to actively providing funding to brigades through the grants program, RFBAQ pursues issues and projects of relevance to brigades and volunteers. RFBAQ is committed to ensuring that the wider community recognises the level of commitment, professionalism, service as well as social and economic contribution made by the brigades and the volunteers.
