Thanks for supporting the Abingdon Volunteer Fire & Rescue.
While our dedicated volunteers donate their time and energy for free, it costs a lot to outfit a firefighter, maintain our response vehicles, and purchase needed equipment. The Abingdon Volunteer Fire & Rescue relies on donations from our community and various year-round fundraising programs to support every aspect of our hard-working volunteer organization.
Fund Drive
We conduct an annual fund drive each by mailing information packages to all of the homes, businesses, and property owners within our district. Our fund raising brochure includes background information about our department and some of our planned equipment purchases for the upcoming year.
We receive funding from the county to support many of our capital investments, but our fund drive is needed to support our operating costs throughout the year. Fuel, maintenance, replacement supplies, turn-out gear, and equipment are all funded primarily by your donations.
We do not solicit funds over the phone, so if you receive a call soliciting funds, please let us know.
