Who We Are:

The West Valley City Firefighters Association is the local chapter of the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF). We also belong to the Professional Firefighters of Utah (PFFU). Membership is voluntary, and is available to current and retired members of the West Valley City Fi

re Department. Dues are paid by all members to maintain their active status. What we do:

The West Valley Firefighters Association advocates for safe staffing levels to provide effective firefighting and emergency medical responses that allow us to protect the public and reduce firefighter injuries and deaths. We advocate for fair pay and benefits to keep West Valley Firefighters competitive compared to surrounding cities. We advocate for fair pension and retirement plans. Firefighters generally can only work 20-30 years because of the physical nature of the job. We contribute time and money to many charities such as the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA), Burn Camp, National Fallen Firefighters Fund, etc. How you can help us:

Do ALL of your shopping in West Valley City. Sales tax collected in West Valley City helps to fund a better fire department. Vote for firefighter friendly political candidates and contact your current senators, representatives, city council members, and any other politician that you can. Ask them to vote for measures that fund your fire department and protect you and your family. Thank you for your support!

Our brother, Local 81 Firefighter Kade Martin, passed away surrounded by his family and friends on November 12 from job related cancer. Kade wasn’t just a dedicated firefighter, but also a dedicated father, son, and friend who was deeply loved by those who knew him. Please consider a donation below.

Kade loomed larger than life and served Salt Lake City with bravery, integrity, and professionalism. We are heartbroken at his untimely passing. Our Firefighters, Fire Department, and City are all better for his time here, and his legacy will live on through every one of us. We will never forget.
