Accomplishments

Wow!  What a year to remember!

​

We have done so much over the years with the help of volunteers, parents, kids, and donors who have all contributed in so many ways to help our mission in bringing burned children survivors encouragement and support physically, emotionally, and psychologically. 

​

The BCRF has two paid staff members: The CEO and Executive Director/Corporate Treasurer. The BCRF Board of Directors oversees all programs, implements fundraising programs and provides strategic planning advice. The Burned Children Recovery Foundation has over 700 volunteers who play an important role in fulfilling the BCRF's mission. Many are involved in fundraising efforts as well as volunteering their time and expertise for the BCRF’s many programs.
