He was recognized for bravery several times throughout his distinguished tenure. Early in his career, Nick was awarded the PGFD Gold Medal of Valor for rescuing two children from a house fire in Seat Pleasant, MD.

A bout the D.C Firefighters Burn Foundation Children's Burn Camp Since 2005 the DC Firefighters Burn Foundation has provided young burn survivors from the Washington metropolitan region an opportunity to attend a one-of-a-kind summer camp. The Children’s Burn Camp is a safe, natural outdoor environment for kids ages 8 to 18 from around the world who have survived life-altering burn injuries. The remote setting creates a unique opportunity for the campers to just be kids for one week without fearing others staring at their scares, asking uncomfortable questions, or being made to feel they are different. The camp is staffed by firefighters, nurses, physical and occupational therapists, and burn survivors, who volunteer almost ten days every summer to make this camp a success. Firefighters from DC to Maine raise the funds to keep this camp free for all campers and their families. The DC Firefighters Burn Foundation even provides transportation and basic needs such as pillows and sleeping bags for the kids from the Washington metropolitan region. Founded in 2004, the D.C. Firefighters Burn Foundation is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization established by active and retired Washington, D.C. Firefighters. The Foundation is dedicated to assisting in the recovery and rehabilitation of injured firefighters and burn survivors from the Washington metropolitan region. We support burn research, treatment, and rehabilitation programs at Washington Hospital Center and Children’s National Medical Center (CNMC). Information Source: IAFF Local 1619 | eventbrite
