The Firefighters Burn Institute is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Sacramento, California, focused on burn care and prevention. It was founded in 1973 by Sacramento Fire Captain Cliff Haskell and the Sacramento Area Fire Fighters, Local 522, to establish a local burn treatment facility and to support burn survivors. The institute pursues public education on fire and burn prevention, and it funds education for medical burn teams, firefighters, and burn survivors, while supporting burn treatment and rehabilitation research. It operates as a small-to-mid-sized nonprofit dedicated to addressing burn-related needs in the community. In 2023, the organization expanded its partnerships to include Shriners and UC Davis Medical Center, reflecting collaboration to advance burn care.
