Support the SFPA
The San Francisco Paramedic Association needs your support!
Established 20 years ago as a non-profit agency, the SFPA's mission has been to improve the delivery of emergency medical services in the Bay Area. We have been able to accomplish this goal by offering emergency medical training to the public as well as healthcare professionals. In fact, we have grown steadily over the years to become one of the largest providers of emergency medical education in Northern California.

We are dedicated to providing high-quality educational programs in a low-stress environment. Our educators provide an enjoyable, valuable learning experience ensuring our students come away with the essential knowledge, confidence and skills needed to handle critical emergencies. You may not be aware that the SFPA also provides free classes or deeply discounted rates to our surrounding communities whose members cannot afford to pay, but need these vital skills.
The SFPA has been self-sufficient since its inception and has not sought outside funding sources - however, times have drastically changed. Our location, while convenient and centrally located, has grown into an upscale area - and costs have followed suit. While we have been fortunate enough to support our organization through our teaching programs, the rising costs have not afforded us the opportunity to purchase new or upgrade our existing equipment as often as we would like.
We must now look to our members and supporters to aid us in our mission and help maintain our standard of excellence.
Please show your support by contributing to our recently established Equipment Fund or Community Education Fund. Your generous gifts are tax-deductible and greatly appreciated. We also need and appreciate the donation of needed training equipment.
You can also give by volunteering your services, see our volunteer page.
