A Message from Chief Shane Glaiser

It is my honor to offer my support for the Round Rock Fire Foundation, an organization dedicated to the long-term well-being of the Round Rock Fire Department and the families who stand behind it. The Foundation plays an important role in providing resources that complement the work we do every day, offering support that reaches beyond the fire station.

RRFF is building on the strong programs and values already in place. Their goal is to supplement our department’s existing wellness efforts, family support initiatives, and other critical services with additional resources where they can have the greatest impact. Just as important, they are preparing to be a dependable source of crisis relief, ready to step in when one of our own faces an unexpected challenge.

As the Foundation grows, its focus will remain on closing gaps that traditional funding cannot always cover, strengthening family-based programs that keep our firefighters connected to their loved ones, and ensuring help is available quickly when it’s needed most.

The Foundation’s work reflects four values that mirror our own: Community, Compassion, Commitment, and Legacy. These values guide how we care for one another and how we serve the City of Round Rock.

To the board members, volunteers, and donors driving this mission forward—thank you. Your commitment will help ensure our firefighters are ready for every call, knowing their families have strong support behind them. I encourage anyone who believes in supporting fire families to get involved with the Foundation and be part of the difference it is making.

Sincerely,
Shane Glaiser
Fire Chief, Round Rock Fire Department
