Farewell, Fireworks
On September 21, 2014, we lost one of the namesakes of this foundation, our beautiful calico cat, Fireworks. For 18-years, she delighted us with her out-sized personality, friendliness, and affection. In addition, Fireworks was possessed of the qualities we like to see in our grantees: she was independent and audacious by nature, feisty when necessary, and had a healthy irreverence toward authority.

About us
Who We Are
The Firedoll Foundation is a private family foundation founded by two unrepentant liberals from the 60's who still believe in the motto, "If you are not part of the solution, you're part of the problem."
We are looking for ways to be part of the solution. Learn more about us.
