DVFC Fund Raising Events
As a 100% volunteer organization, fundraising is essential to keeping our department running and ready to respond. The majority of our events throughout the year are dedicated to raising the funds needed to support our operations—from maintaining equipment and training our members to upgrading gear and covering day-to-day expenses. In fact, over 50% of our annual income comes directly from community-supported fundraisers. Whether it’s a Soup Day, Flea Market, or the annual Fireman's Fair, every event is a chance to connect with our neighbors while helping to fund the critical services we provide. We invite you to check out our upcoming events and join us in supporting your local fire company.
