Glad we could work together with Rocklands Barbeque and Grilling Company to help support our healthcare workers!
While most of us are focused on escaping our homes and looking forward to the reopening process our medical professionals are still hard at work. Our nurses, doctors, rehab therapist, respiratory therapist, techs, and social workers are still hard at work. Prior to the COVID crisis they had a tough job and throughout this crisis they have continued to show us how dedicated they are. Today DC Firefighters Burn Foundation along with DC Fire And EMS Chief Dean provided custom burn foundation masks along with lunch from Rocklands Barbeque and Grilling Company to the trauma, burn, Hematology/Oncology, respiratory therapy and rehab staff Children’s National Hospital and MedStar Washington Hospital Center. Thank you to all of our health care workers for all that you do for us.
Thank you very much for this generous donation. We sincerely appreciate the support we have received from our community!
The Heme/onc staff thanks you for today!!
Thank you so much for your generosity! It made our day!
DCFFBF...always looking for ways to care for others! Thank you for your thoughtfulness and generosity!
Thank you so much! I love my new mask 💕
Saying a big thank you to all the amazing nurses we know on #NationalNursesDay. Today, more than ever, we are so grateful for all health care professionals who are putting their lives on the line to protect us each and every day. Thank a nurse - and a healthcare professional - today and every day!!

Good news to all our wine drinking friends out there - The sale has been extended through the week. If you are looking to order a few extra bottles during quarantine, please consider our friends from Wines for Humanity, who donate to our silent auction each year!
For those who asked- all of their wines that we tried are good but we especially like the Black Shiraz and the Lobster Key Sauv Blanc!We've received a lot of queries about how to help the nurses, doctors and heroes at the hospitals we support. While the best way is to donate to the Foundation and note "COVID-19" in the donation space, we will be bringing you several deals and offers over the next few weeks, a percentage of sales will benefit the Foundation. We know not everyone can afford "extras" right now, but if you can, and are shopping, please consider some of our deals. Wines for Humanity provides us with great in-home tastings for silent auction prizes at our Night of the Market. THIS WEEKEND ONLY they are offering 40% wine (use code BIG40!) at a percentage of sales go to the Foundation. But please use this link: www.winesforhumanity.com/winetime

We recently surprised our friends in the burn, trauma and respiratory therapy teams at MedStar Washington Hospital Center with some Chic-fil-a lunch and Foundation reusable water bottles to keep them fed and fueled during this difficult time. These teams have always supported the Foundation and our firefighters in times of need and we hope to do the same during this global crisis. We also surprised them with some music from DCFD Emerald Society Pipes and Drums.
Thank you for all you do! Stay safe and stay strong, DC (and stay home!)
What an incredible surprise! Lunch was great and the bagpipes were even better! We can't thank you enough. The support that we have received from our communities has been amazing.
I am so sad I missed y’all! Thank you so much... it was delish!!!🥰
Thanks as always for the love to DCFFBF, 3e and 4h and the rest of the Medstar team
You are associated!!!
We continue to support our friends at Children’s National during these unpredictable times! The medical staffs at every hospital are doing whatever they can to support patients. This week we provided the staff of the Surgical Care Unit and the physical and occupational therapists with #TacoTuesday from delicious District Taco. Thank you to all the medical staff and first responders, we will get through this together!
That is great . I would like to donate items who do I contact
We would like to thank our good friend Jim Mazzara from Rescue 1 for dropping by Children’s National Hospital recently and showing his appreciation for the staff there. Our nurses, therapist, doctors, and medical teams are America’s true heroes during this crisis. Together we will all get through this and come out stronger.

To some of us, this past month feels like a year. But it was just a few months ago that we were selling Christmas trees at The Salt Line to benefit the Foundation. Together, we raised more than $11K selling trees, wreaths and ornaments. We look forward to holding this fundraiser this winter AND supporting our restaurant partners when it is safe!
What a great idea by our friends and partners at The Salt Line! Get your raffle tickets today & support local small businesses!

At The Salt Line, we’re bringing New England and the Chesapeake together in Washington DC’s southeast riverfront.Through the generosity of philanthropic partners, our friends Children’s National Hospital will open a Pediatric Drive Up and Walk Up Testing site starting March 24, 2020, where primary care doctors in the Washington, D.C., region can refer young patients for COVID-19 specimen collection and testing. A referral form provided by the primary care provider is required to conduct the swab test at the site.
Referred patients will receive the paperwork and directions to access the drive-through and walk-up site from their referring physician. When arriving at the site, photo identification and the referral form are required to enter. All results are communicated back to the family by the referring doctor when they are returned in approximately five days.
