Our MissionThe American Pyrotechnics Safety & Education Foundation is a 501 c(3) charitable organization focused on creating fireworks safety and education programs for youth. The goal of this education initiative Celebrate Safely, is to instill in young people an understanding of how consumer fireworks should be used appropriately, discourage the misuse of fireworks, and decrease the number of fireworks-related injuries in the U.S. Thank You Tournament Sponsors! Former CPSC Chair Tenenbaum Explains How Celebrate Safely Programs Educate Youth Partners with the PGI for Safety Foundation leaders promoted its safety initiatives with members of the Pyrotechnics Guild International (PGI) during their annual convention in Mason City, Iowa. Significant interest was generated among the PGI membership and we are pleased that PGI President Paul Smith and 1st Vice President Dr. John Steinberg were recently named to serve on the Foundation Board. We are grateful to have their expertise and passion to assist in the Foundation in its efforts to educate youth to celebrate safely.
