Description: Inspired by the efforts of our nation's firefighters - including the many Georgia-Pacific employees serving their communities as volunteer firefighters - we have tapped into the inspirational history of firefighting to create the Georgia-Pacific Bucket Brigade™

As a "thank you" for supporting Georgia-Pacific's neighbors and helping to keep our facilities safe, fire departments in communities where GP operates are eligible to participate in the GP Bucket Brigade program.

The program supports firefighters in GP communities with:

Grants which are co-sponsored by the Georgia-Pacific Foundation and local GP facilities Continuing education programs and materials that will help spread the word about fire safety, and keep firefighters and the families they serve safe Product donations, as well as volunteers, to help fill the needs of firefighting units Professional and volunteer firefighters should contact their area Georgia-Pacific facility to determine how that facility is participating in the GP Bucket Brigade program.

NOTE: A requirement for receiving funding from the GP Bucket Brigade program is that the fire department must serve a community in which a Georgia-Pacific facility is located or where GP employees reside. Click here for information about GP facilities.
