For Solano County we don’t have one individual, but rather a group of humanitarians that have earned the honorable distinction together. The Solano Napa Firefighters Foundation (SNFF) is a local charity comprised of a team of fire department personnel from the IAFF Local 1186 Union, who have dedicated themselves to serving their community, even when they’re off duty. They provide financial assistance to local charities, individuals and families, offer scholarships to local youth, and, well, a whole lot more. From helping a child build a lemonade stand after a traumatic experience, to helping a family regroup after losing everything in a house fire after Christmas, SNFF always puts the greater good at the forefront. “To be able to help someone when they feel like life is too much, like their situation is bleak—it’s a beautiful thing,” said Jennifer Cluney, Secretary/Administrative Assistant for the SNFF. “The firefighters come together to create this amazing way to continue helping beyond the 911 call.” The SNFF currently has no website, but to keep up you can follow Local 1186 on Facebook. If you want to get more info or to get involved, Jennifer invites you to email her directly at j.cluney.snff@gmail.com.
