What is the NFSA Industry Advancement Fund?

Devin Doyle of Newport Beach, California is the owner of Response Fire Supply, Devin Doyle possesses several years of experience within the fire safety industry. Dedicated to staying up to date on industry happenings, he is a member of the National Fire Sprinkler Association (NFSA).

In existence for over a century, the NFSA provides awareness about fire sprinkler safety and promote legislation to protect lives and property from damage caused by fire. The NFSA created an Industry Advancement Fund in 2007 to establish a means for collecting money to fund special projects that support the sprinkler industry. This fund is supported in part by individuals and companies that are not directly involved in the industry.

One of the programs that the Industry Advancement Fund supports is the Newspapers in Education, an initiative that promotes fire sprinkler messages and fire service companies that raise awareness about fire sprinklers. Funding is also directed to Common Voices, a non-profit group that was formed by individuals personally affected by the loss of loved ones in building fires where sprinklers were absent.
