Breakfast With Our Bravest

Every year the Atlanta Fire Rescue Foundation hosts a Breakfast event dedicated to recognizing extraordinary members of the Atlanta Fire Rescue Department and significant contributors to the Department and Foundation's success. The Breakfast with Our Bravest event has become the Foundation's largest annual fundraiser bringing together community, civic leaders, and corporate partners to honor awardees.

On Friday, May 8, 2026, the Atlanta community will gather to honor Atlanta’s Bravest — and we look forward to hopefully seeing you there! From powerful stories to heartfelt awards, the 2026 Breakfast with Our Bravest is an event you do not want to miss.
