Being a volunteer FireFighter

Being a volunteer firefighter is one of the best ways to serve your community.  The fire service is very diversified, we have people from all different walks of life.  In Pennsylvania volunteerism in the fire service is dropping, creating the possibility for a crisis.  You are the only ones who can resolve that issue.  We need hardworking men and women like yourself to step up, and proudly serve the community.  The Ivyland Fire Company is always looking for volunteers.
