Craig Helmholz Scholarship

South Kitsap Fire Rescue Volunteer Association has been serving the community and SKFR since 1946. The Association goals are to support the best interest of the department, fellow volunteers, and the surrounding community. Association volunteers actively participate in department and community activities, such as the countywide Recruit Academy, Public Safety Fair, Home Safety Inspections, Santa Runs, HotFoot 5K, Olalla Easter Breakfast, Fire House Spaghetti Feed, and more. Visit www.skfrva.org to learn more. This scholarship is in memory of Craig Helmholz, a young volunteer firefighter who lost his battle with cancer in 1999. Craig’s commitment to service while battling the cancer that took his life inspired the Association to create a scholarship program to promote community service while assisting higher education.
