The Fire Wife Day Off Fund
Fire | A Uniform Families Foundation Fund
The Fire Wife Day Off Fund
A fire wife does not get days off. She runs the house on a 48, sleeps with one ear on the phone, and cancels her own plans for strike teams and overtime. The Fire Wife Day Off Fund gives her one: a massage, a spa day, a makeover, a few hours that are only about her, paid for by people who know she earned it.
She holds the home front. Give her one day off.
The Day Off
What the Fund Pays For
A Massage
Ninety minutes where nobody needs her.
A Spa Day
A full day: facial, nails, the quiet room, lunch she did not cook.
A Makeover
Hair and makeup with a professional, and a photo she actually likes.
Fire Wife Glow Up Days
Group events where a room full of fire wives get pampered together and nobody explains the shift calendar.
EventsThe Long Season Reset
After a brutal fire season or a long stretch of overtime, a day off arrives without her asking.
Nominated by Someone Who Sees Her
Firefighters, kids, friends, and other fire wives nominate the wife who needs it most.
Give a Day Off
Sponsor a Fire Wife
Your gift becomes a day off for a fire wife. She gets a card that says who thought of her, or stays anonymous if you prefer.

Who Needs a Day Off?
Firefighters, this is your chance. Kids, friends, and fellow fire wives too.
Why We Built This
Founded by a Fire Wife
Uniform Families Foundation was founded by a fire wife, and FireWives was the first thing she built. This fund is the one she would have wanted someone to start for her: not a program, not a meeting, just a day where the fire life is not allowed in the room.
- For the spouses and partners of firefighters, active and retired
- Massages, spa days, makeovers, and Glow Up Days
- Nominated by the people who see her
- Salons and spas can partner to host
