 In The Beginning

The Northern California Burn Foundation was founded in 1986. Burn Unit Doctors, Nurses, and Firefighters designed this Foundation to help assist burn survivors during their long recovery process.

The NCBF works to provide services and fire and burn prevention education. This is essential to help escape the trauma and severe pain many endure when seriously burned. The NCBF also produces fire and burn prevention materials that are distributed throughout the country.

According to the American Burn Association, each year in the Untied States, 1.1 million burn injuries require medical attention.
  • Every year, children start nearly 100,000 fIres.
  • Approximately 50,000 of these require hospitalization.
  • Each year, approximately 4,500 of these people die.
The NCBF provides a camp for severely burned children as well as other programs for burn survivors throughout the year. These programs are designed to:
  • Build self-esteem.
  • Help relieve emotional suffering.
  • Build coping skills.
  • Promote socializing with other burn survivors.
