About Our Mission

The Naperville Professional Firefighters for a Cause is a 501c.3 non-profit organization that was born from the desire of the brothers and sisters of the Naperville Professional Firefighters Local 4302 to do something more for the community they serve.

The mission of the NPFFC is to seek out reputable organizations and charitable efforts that are serving the greater good in the Naperville community. We strive to serve in partnership with these organizations in their respective missions.

Our general activity is based in, but not limited to, raising funds and awareness in an effort to support our partner non-profit organizations.

Since our inception in 2011, we have worked with more than a dozen local organizations to help sustain and jump start their respective missions. We have focused our impact on rallying our membership to volunteer, donate and raise awareness for the important work of the nonprofit missions in our community.

Tornado Relief

In 2021, several communities on the southside of Naperville were devastated by a tornado. Not only did we respond on duty, but we also activated off-duty, collecting and distributing more than $19,000 in donations to the various organizations supporting the residents.

Million Dollar, Baby!

In 2021, we hit a big benchmark as we crossed the threshold of a decade in operation! In 2024, we are looking to spin the ticker past the $1,000,000 mark of funds raised. Stay tuned!
