When lives are on the line, every second matters. As the only official U.S. partner of the Israel Fire & Rescue Authority, Jewish National Fund-USA equips firefighters with vehicles, protective gear, life-saving equipment, and facilities that help them protect communities across Israel.

  • Firefighters responding to an emergency at night.
  • An Israeli firefighter standing beside a Jewish National Fund-supported fire vehicle.

  • Equipping Those Who Answer the Call

    JNF-USA has donated 221 fire trucks, supporting 2,300 professional firefighters who protect a population of 10 million and 3,500 volunteers across Israel. Together, they respond to 182,000 annual calls, bringing rapid response to remote northern and southern communities. New vehicles and stations strengthen response in remote communities in Israel’s North and South.

  • The Right Equipment for the Terrain

    Big Red trucks support a wide range of fire and rescue emergencies, while first-responder pickups carry crews and equipment where they are needed. Rapid Action ATVs and Fire Extinguisher Rangers reach areas larger vehicles cannot, with protective gear and civil-defense equipment distributed according to needs in the field.
