Overview

To raise funds and provide financial support to sustain our local volunteer fire department. Through community engagement, fundraising efforts, and responsible stewardship, we strive to ensure our volunteer firefighters have the resources, equipment, and support they need to protect and serve our community safely and effectively.

What it reported doing in 2025

Funds raised were used to assist with the purchase of firefighting equipment, safety gear, training expenses, and other operational needs necessary to protect life and property.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
