Stirling Volunteer Fire Co. Annual Fund Drive
Submitted by Frank Reilly
During this trying time with the coronavirus, your local volunteer firefighters need your financial help. They answer your calls for help 24/7, every day of the year regardless of the weather, what they are doing, or virus. They promptly respond for more than 300 emergency calls a year.
The annual fund drive notice has been mailed to all residents of Gillette, Meyersville, Homestead Park, and Stirling. These communities are the Stirling Volunteer Fire Co.’s primary first responder region. Please make your donation as soon as possible and be as generous as possible. If you did not receive the fund drive letter, please mail your donation to these local heroes, who are your neighbors, at: Stirling Volunteer Fire Co., P O Box 122, Stirling, NJ 07980.
They are a very dedicated, hard-working group with expertise in firefighting, hazmat response, rescue techniques using tools such as their Jaws of Life and gas and CO meters and they do fire safety and fire prevention training to school children and groups.
When the fire siren sounds to alert them to an emergency call for help, they respond quickly. Please thank them for their dedication and selflessness to the community by donating today.
Did you know?
The Stirling Volunteer Fire Co. is always there for you every day of the year and every hour of the day or night.
They have stopped every house fire in recent years and saved occupants and pets as well as many valuable and sentimental possessions.
They respond to more than 300 calls for help each year.
Many of Stirling’s firefighters are in their homes or places of employment right now ready to stop what they’re doing to respond to an emergency, possibly yours.
You are saved well over $1 million a year in your local taxes because they are unpaid volunteer firefighters using a firehouse they built themselves at their own expense and they maintain it. They are caring and compassionate residents of Long Hill Township who are your neighbors and they need your financial help now.
