Supporting Those Who Serve
Our firefighters are there for us during life's most difficult moments. This event is an opportunity for our community to come together and support those who dedicate their lives to protecting ours.
Proceeds from the chili cook-off benefit firefighter mental wellness initiatives through the Aurora Fire Foundation, including Aurora Fire Rescue's Chaplaincy, Peer Support, and K9 programs.
Come hungry, bring the family, support your favorite fire station, and help us make a difference in the lives of our first responders!
Together, we're building a stronger, healthier fire service community.
