OUR MISSION:
To develop a culture of Firemanship within the State of Hawaii that is rooted in Family, Brotherhood, and Training, while providing the best service to our community through ongoing professional development and volunteerism.
OUR VISION:
We envision a network a fire service leaders that contribute to the future growth of the Hawaii Fire Service; being a steward of our community by providing services in times of need through volunteer opportunities; and ensuring professional development to all future firefighters.
OUR VALUES:
Family - Nothing can take the place of home in rearing and teaching children; we must never forget to place the priorities of our family first.
Brotherhood - The "dark smoky hallway" is a place and time that all firefighters can relate to. We understand how it feels, knowing that my Brother and Sister stands beside me. We will not leave your side and commit to sacrifice for each other.
Training - We believe in being well-trained. We owe it to ourselves, our brothers and sisters, our families, and the community we swore to protect.

Leadership:
So many books and philosophies on leadership but the core essentials have remained the same for centuries. Let’s go beyond the buzzwords and leadership checklist and talk about people. Old fashioned trust is the cornerstone of leadership and can’t be built on charismatic words and promises. There are too many fake leaders in our professiongetting leadership certificates and degrees who can’t relate to people. We have to really care about our members in order to provide the leadership that will build the necessary trust. Once this is in place we can learn from the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics (entropy) to ensure we don’t go stagnant but continue to grow as a team.
