Through July 1, 2026, we are accepting donations and scholarships to support the 2026 Wisconsin Burn Boss Academy this Fall. Tax-deductible contributions will allow us to offer full-ride scholarships to emerging and underprivileged fire leaders applying to the Academy. These scholarships will help grow Wisconsin’s fire capacity and preserve its fire-dependent ecosystems by expanding the pool of qualified prescribed fire managers in the communities where they are most needed.
The following sponsorship tiers are available for organizations:
Bronze ($500): Recognition in BBA email communications as well as the opening and closing ceremonies of the Academy.
Silver ($1000): All of the above benefits, plus recognition in Academy slide decks and a BBA scholarship in your organization’s name.
Gold ($2000): All of the above benefits, plus recognition in the BBA student workbook and an additional scholarship in your organization’s name.
Platinum ($5000): A special sponsorship tier for above-and-beyond donors. Includes all of the above benefits, plus the opportunity to work with Academy organizers on a highly-personalized recognition appropriate to your organization. We welcome all interested parties to reach out to certification@prescribedfire.org to discuss sponsorship opportunities before committing.
