We need your help! The Santa Barbara Fire Safe Council depends on membership dues and donations from the community, foundations, private and public grants, and volunteers to achieve our mission of promoting wildfire safety across the County through education and action.

Our funds go directly to important wildfire preparedness activities throughout Santa Barbara County, California. These activities include printing of educational material regarding wildfire preparedness, staffing of educational booths at local events, a bi-monthly presentation from local experts on wildfire related topics, neighborhood “walk and talks”, neighborhood chipping days, and Community Wildfire Protection Plans.

Our organization relies on dedicated volunteers and on support form contributors like you to complete these critical educational, planning and mitigation activities. We operate with very low overhead so you can be assured nearly every dollar donated or secured through grants goes directly to fulfilling our mission.

Fill out the attached membership form. Members are the backbone of our organization. They act as neighborhood liaisons to ensure their concerns are voiced at the council meetings and in turn bring meaningful solutions back to their communities.
