Renew Your SFFMA Membership for 2024!
Note: SAFER Grant funds may be available to help cover the cost of membership.
SFFMA membership runs from January 1-December 31 each calendar year. Renew now for 2024. Please note - members/departments now update their account information and generate their own invoices from PORTAL rather than SFFMA printing and mailing them out. This helps keep costs down, and reduces printing incorrect information. It also saves trees. And renewing or signing up online is fast and easy in the SFFMA PORTAL! Registering and updating your account is safe and convenient. With PORTAL, you’re in control!
*** Renew today and have peace of mind. ***
Make sure there is no lapse in your insurance coverage. We had numerous LODDs in the past two years where the firefighters had a lapse in coverage. Tragically, after losing a loved one, their families didn’t receive anything from insurance. We know you put your life on the line every day. If the worst were to happen, would your family be okay?
We also ask all PORTAL users to please make sure you have your most up-to-date contact info in the system. This includes addresses, emails and other contact info.
