CALIFORNIA FIRE FOUNDATION


Earned with courage displayed with pride

The California Firefighter License Plate has been established as one of the most recognizable images on California’s roadways for over two decades. Created by California Professional Firefighters in 1995, the California Firefighter License Plate features the iconic Backdraft movie poster image, the rights of which were donated for exclusive use on the California Firefighter specialty plates. The specialty plate allows active, retired, and volunteer firefighters to show their pride and support for our brothers and sisters who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

The License Plate program is administered by the California Fire Foundation, and $40 of each annual renewal of these specialized license plates directly supports expanding and maintaining the California Firefighters Memorial located in Sacramento’s Capitol Park. Over the past 29 years, Firefighters with license plates have contributed more than $10 million dollars in funding through the program.

As we expand the California Firefighters Memorial to continue honoring our fallen brothers and sisters, California Firefighter License Plates are more critical than ever. Get your plate today to show pride in your profession and support the California Firefighters Memorial.
