ABOUT Dallas Black Firefighters Association
Unwavering Commitment to Serving Our Members and Community
The Dallas Black Firefighters Association, a 501(5)c organization, is one of 155 chapters of The International Association of Black Professional Firefighters. Originally recognized as the 182nd Social Club, the Dallas chapter had only nine members. The first president elected in 1972, Henry Majors, led the efforts of the small group to unify the black firefighters in Dallas.
In 1983, the chapter was renamed the Dallas Black Firefighters Association. The Dallas chapter, now 330+ members strong, has maintained an unwavering commitment to serving their members and community. The role of community service extends past firefighting to participating with the Center Table, Mark Cuban Foundation, donation of toys to children at Christmas and various mentoring programs. Membership affiliation includes: Life member of the NAACP, Federal Emergency Management, Blue Ribbon Panel, Dallas Black Chamber of Commerce, the Greater Dallas Chamber of Commerce and IABPFF South Central Region.
