Join us for the Hearth and Heart Gala, an evening in support of the Contra Costa
Fire Foundation.
Join us on Saturday, November 21 at the Martinez Refinery Clubhouse for dinner,
community, and a silent auction, all benefiting the Girls Empowerment Camp
(GEC). Doors open at 6 PM. Dinner will be catered by Jack’s Restaurant of
Pleasant Hill, a longtime favorite of our local fire family. Attire is Cocktail Casual.
GEC is a free two-day camp where young women ages 14-17 get hands-on
experience with fire service careers, learn from firefighters, and gain confidence
and leadership skills. Registration costs families nothing, but the camp costs
about $60,000 a year to run. Your support helps keep it free and open to every
girl who wants a seat.
Tickets and table sponsorships are now available. Whether you come with
friends, colleagues, or as a company team, your participation directly supports
the girls and the firefighters who mentor them.
