Your Community Depends on Volunteers—Help Keep Volunteer Emergency Services Affordable

Did you know that Frederick County Fire & Rescue is a combination department of both career and volunteer personnel? Did you know that Frederick County Volunteer Fire and Rescue operate 33 stations—and 27 of those are volunteer-owned? Our volunteers are the backbone of emergency services, responding to calls, maintaining equipment, and keeping our community safe. As call volumes continue to rise, we need dedicated individuals like you to help us meet the growing demand.

Without volunteers, Frederick County would face two harsh realities:
Slower emergency response times, putting lives and property at risk.
Significant tax increases to fund full-time staff and equipment.

Why Volunteer?

Save lives and protect your neighbors.
Gain valuable skills and training.
Be part of a team that makes a real difference.
Increase happiness and life satisfaction.
You are bridging the gaps keeping emergency services strong and afforable.

Volunteer firefighters save taxpayers billions of dollars nationwide every year while protecting families, homes, and businesses. When you volunteer, you’re not just giving your time—you’re helping keep Frederick County strong, safe, and prepared.
