SUPPORTING OUR VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT
The Tioughnioga Volunteer Fire Department is a volunteer organization. Our ability to respond to emergencies, maintain equipment, and train our members depends on the support of the community we serve.
There are several ways individuals, families, and local businesses can help support the department and ensure we remain ready when emergencies happen.
MONETARY SUPPORT
Financial contributions help offset the cost of equipment, training, vehicle maintenance, and operational expenses. Firefighting equipment and training are expensive, and community support plays a direct role in keeping the department prepared and effective. Information on how to make a donation or contribute to specific department needs can be found through the department .
ATTEND OR SPONSOR OUR EVENTS
Fundraising events, including the annual Firemen’s Fair and other community activities, are a major source of support for the department. These events are not just traditions. They directly fund equipment, training, and readiness.
Attending events, sponsoring activities, or supporting them as a local business helps strengthen the department and keeps these community traditions alive.
VOLUNTEER
The DeRuyter Tioughnioga Volunteer Fire Department relies on volunteers in different ways. Some members serve as firefighters, responding to emergencies, attending training and drills, and helping maintain equipment and readiness. Others support the department by volunteering their time at community events and fundraisers, including the annual Firemen’s Fair, assisting with setup, operations, and logistics. Whether serving on the fire ground or helping behind the scenes, volunteers play a vital role in ensuring the department remains prepared to protect and serve the community.
