The Independence Firefighters Local 781 Good and Welfare Corporation was established on October 10, 1975. Composed of members of IAFF Local 781, the nonprofit corporation dedicates itself to bettering people’s lives through resources like the Community Service League. From financial to actual man-power help, the corporation strives and takes great pride in contributing to the improvement of our community. 

In the last 3 years alone our Good & Welfare Corporation has donated over $20,000 to help the Citizens of Independence including:

$12,000 - Scholarships for the students of Truman, William Chrisman, Van Horn and Fort Osage High Schools.

$6,000 – To the Community Service League of Independence, for programs like Back to School and Holiday Adopt-a-Family.
