VCFD Volunteer Program
Volunteer with Us
Our VCFD Volunteer program is about more than just time spent. Those who can, do. Those who can do more, volunteer. Our Community Education Program delivers fire prevention, education, and safety programs for children, adults, and seniors. VCFD Volunteers go out into the community and work to make this possible.
Working together, we all make a difference—one volunteer, one program, and one action at a time.
