State Farm® and the Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition Team Up to Donate 500 Laptops to Fire Departments
January 29, 2026
We are excited to announce State Farm® has teamed up with the Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition (HFSC) to provide 100 eligible fire departments with five previously owned laptops. For over 100 years, State Farm® has helped people manage the risks of everyday life, recover from the unexpected and realize their dreams. One of the ways they do this is through their philanthropic efforts. These donated laptops will aid fire departments in administrative tasks, training, incident tracking, and more that will enhance their capabilities and efficiency.
The deadline to enter for the chance to receive laptops is March 2, 2026.
The laptops are previously owned but have been wiped clean. The donation is for the laptops only. It does not include operating systems, software, or technical support. The receiving departments are responsible for purchasing any productivity applications, such as Microsoft Office Suite, and any anti-virus software. View the laptop specifications >

- Individual entering must be a member of a US fire department and legally organized under state law.
- Only departments in the 48 contiguous U.S. states can enter. Alaska and Hawaii are not eligible due to shipping restrictions.
