Fire, rescue and ambulance service

What it reported doing in 2024

During fiscal year end 2024, the association answered 75 emergency calls in the town of hinsdale and surrounding communities

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 81% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and the available information about grant readiness automatic revocation leaves an important question unanswered.
