    About the Charities
    The Firefighters Burn Institute is a non-profit established in 1973 by the Sacramento Area Firefighters Local 522. In 1974, the organization helped open Sacramento's first burn unit in conjunction with U.C. Davis' Medical Center. The FFBI raises funds through various events including the Buy-a-Brick Fundraiser, boot drives, grab feeds and galas. The money it raises supports public education efforts, burn treatment and rehabilitation research. The money is also used to fund various FFBI projects including the Burn Camp for Kids. The Burn Campoffers fun and engaging activities that help young burn survivors heal physically and mentally.

    The Sacramento Sheriff's Toy Project started in 1984 to connect less fortunate families with people capable of helping them. Each year, the charity collects bicycles, computers, clothing and other items to donate to deserving families in the Sacramento area. Another program operated by this organization allows law breakers to reduce their sentences by helping local families. This effort is supervised by the Sacramento Sheriff Department.

    The Sacramento Fallen Officers Resources Fund raises money for officers who are injured on the job and forfamilies of officers that fell in the line of duty. The organization holdsseveral fund raisers throughout the year including the Titan's Cage charity fight.

    Creatine Marketing is excited to attend this event for the first time, and looks forward to having the opportunity to support it in the future as well as other causes!
