Charitable Donations
While we would love you to donate exclusively to Ridge Fire Company there are other organizations who need your help.
One we recognize is below.
This is the only official Chester County organization for donating to help Fire/Police/EMS in the county.
It is a qualified charity under IRC section 501(c)(3).
Many of the board members are Fire/Police/EMS.
99% of the funds raised are used to benefit of fallen first responders and/or their families!!
Ways to verify a charitable organization
While we applaud and welcome your desire to assist, PLEASE make sure that it is a valid charity that will be giving the majority of the collected funds to the stated cause. Unfortunately there are a lot of "FAKE" Charities asking for money in the name of worthy causes..
Thanks to all who came!!!
Thanks to all who donated a Door Prizes!!

There were around 120 attendees. Those attending included volunteer fire fighters, volunteers from the Ladies Auxiliary, some fire chiefs from
neighboring fire companies, township supervisors from townships covered by Ridge Fire Company, and their friends and family. Unfortunately about seven volunteer
fire fighters were unable to attend as there was a tree blown down onto a house causing a large amount of damage just before the banquet. Seven fire fighters
had to respond to the call and didn't return until the banquet was over and everything put away.
That's the life of a volunteer fire fighter!! |
