Brick Paver Fundraising Program
The Summit Fire Department is launching a brick paver fundraising drive to raise money for the new Fire Department headquarters construction project. Residents and business owners are invited to purchase a brick paver that will be inscribed with a name or message and prominently placed near the entrance to the new fire headquarters.
The Other Fellow First Foundation is working with the City of Summit to help raise money for Summit’s new fire headquarters. Close to $300,000 has been raised through private donations from local businesses and foundations with $100,000 remaining to complete the fundraising goal.
“We are very pleased with the progress of the construction so far and are sincerely looking forward to moving in next year once the building is complete,” explains Summit Fire Chief Eric Evers. “This renovation is long overdue and much needed to provide our team with the necessary space so we can continue to serve the Summit community. We hope you will consider purchasing a brick to help us complete this important project, and we thank you for your continued support.”
Citizens can choose from three sizes of bricks to purchase: 4”x4” for $250, 4”x8” for $500, and 12”x12” for $1000. There are four different ways to purchase bricks:
- Register online with Community Pass.
- Call the Department of Community Programs at 908-277-2932 to pay with a Visa or Mastercard over the phone.
- Visit the Summit Community Center at 100 Morris Avenue to pay with cash, check, or Visa/Mastercard and complete the donation form. Make check payable to the City of Summit.
- Send a check to the Summit Community Center, 100 Morris Ave, Summit, NJ 07901 (Attn: Brick Paver Program) with a completed donation form attached. Make check payable to the City of Summit.
