Ignite the Courage

Ignite the Courage Ignite the Courage is a non-profit, 501(c)3 charity created and run by Bartlett firefighters.

Ignite the Courage was created by Bartlett firefighters to provide resources and inspiration for our neighbors within the community. We do not focus on one disease but rather any disease, ailment or significant tragedy that an individual or family may face. As firefighters, we see firsthand the struggles people face throughout their lives. We understand that these struggles can weigh heavy on the

people that endure them. We want to be there to help encourage everyone to keep fighting, don't lose hope and never give up.

Nobody captures the spirit of the Smoke & Irons Music Fest quite like Alyson Keen Photos. Each year, Alyson donates time out of her incredibly busy schedule to photograph the fest and provide us with these killer shots. Alyson is super talented and we can't thank her enough for all that she does for us!!

Featured are a few our favorite shots from the past few years.
