Volunteering
WANTED: Part-time Heroes ~ Full-time Rewards
If it weren’t for Volunteers, three fourths
of the United States would be without adequate fire protection. This is also true
in our community! Few jobs offer the challenges, recognition and rewards that Volunteer
fire and emergency medical services can offer. Protecting the lives and property
of neighborhood families is our mission.
South Bay Fire Department volunteers respond from three fire stations in the District,
with each station housing a pumper, water tender truck and a rescue unit. The district
employs four career staff who support over 30 Volunteers who primarily provide response
and public service to the South Bay area.
We are always looking for dedicated, responsible and ambitious Volunteers to help
support our community.
Volunteer Firefighters are...
- Emergency Responders – We will train you to safely respond and engage in firefighting
operations, provide emergency medical assistance and serve the community in a way
no other Volunteer organization can offer.
- Recognized & Respected – Your dedication efforts don’t go unnoticed. The community
appreciates your work, as does your fellow Volunteers. We value our Volunteers and
provide on-going training as well as social events for our Volunteers.
- Rewarded with Benefits – Our District offers Volunteers a competitive array of financial
incentives, educational and training opportunities as well as insurance and retirement
benefits.
- Rewarded with Personal Satisfaction – Volunteers are rewarded with the personal
satisfaction of serving their community, saving a life or dwelling and serving a
necessary purpose to the well-being of their fellow man.
Volunteer – not so you can build your resume
– but so you can build yourself.
