Your Generosity Builds a Safer Tomorrow — One Donation, One Volunteer Hour at a Time
Why Your Donation Matters
Every time we respond to a call — whether it’s a house fire, medical emergency, or vehicle accident — we rely on equipment, training, and teamwork. As a 100% volunteer department, we don’t receive the same funding as larger fire stations. Your support helps us stay ready to serve and protect our community safely and effectively.
Your donation helps us:
-
Replace worn-out gear and safety equipment
-
Maintain and fuel our fire trucks and rescue vehicles
-
Provide ongoing training for fire, EMS, and rescue operations
-
Offer free fire prevention programs and safety checks in the community
-
Support our volunteers with the tools they need to save lives
You Can Make a Difference — No Gear Required
Not everyone can give financially — and not every volunteer fights fires. From planning events to maintaining gear, every helping hand keeps our department strong. If you have a talent, we can use it. When you give your time, you become part of something bigger — a team that protects Hollidaysburg together.
We welcome volunteers to help with:
-
Cooking and serving meals at community events
-
Promoting fundraisers and sharing on social media
-
Cleaning and maintaining gear and equipment
-
Assisting with admin tasks or organizing events
-
Offering creative skills like photography, design, or writing
-
Training to become a firefighter or EMT (if you’re interested!)
If you’ve got a talent, we’ve got a place for it.
