Across the United States, fire departments are struggling to attract, recruit, and retain volunteers. In many communities, the lack of volunteers is becoming critical. Fire and EMS agencies need people to perform the tasks necessary to return an emergency back to a state of normalcy. If people are not volunteering, the fire and EMS services are left critically short when emergencies occur.

Many volunteer firefighters are working full-time jobs. But they do not work the same hours.

In today’s era of busy, any amount of time a volunteer can donate to the fire department is a true gift. We need You!!
