Get To Know Us

“The staff at the Firefighters and EMS Fund are knowledgeable and experienced at working with these kinds of campaigns, and they brought a lot of unexpected resources. Furthermore, they have been immediately responsive when we needed documentation for campaign-activity reporting or when we had questions. From start to finish, the Firefighters and EMS Fund has followed through on every commitment and consistently exceeded expectations”

– Mark Jung, Kirkland Battalion Chief

“Mr. Porter representing the Firefighters and EMS Fund was crucial to our campaign’s success with his support direction and very needed funding. He allowed us to achieve our goals in reaching our citizens to further support our fire department in promoting voter turnout for our levy. Without their support, we would not have been able to achieve our goals in supporting our fire and EMS providers.”

“We are fortunate to have found your organization. Your financial support of the PAC that was supporting our levy campaign allowed the PAC to close the financial gaps and allow the PAC to continue their campaign efforts for us. Your support and that of the PAC is crucial in campaigning for the passage of our 5-year levy efforts that will allow us to continue to provide the outstanding fire and EMS services to our residents.”

– Chief Joe Ponzi, Genoa Township

“Working with Firefighters and EMS Fund has been a pretty smooth process. Every step of the way you have had good communication. You have kept me abreast of the advertisements and followed through on your commitment. Other towns have been reaching out to us to get references. It is not only a good opportunity for us, but other departments.
We were fortunate to have the Firefighters and EMS fund support our Fire Levy. Our Levy passed and we feel it was because of the extra help we had.”

– Douglas Stewart, Fire Chief

“Interestingly enough, historically, Saybrook Township has avoided using social media to communicate with the community. However, this time around, I felt it was an effective and inexpensive way to reach a large number of people in a short period of time. Having managed fire department social media accounts in the past I saw success with those efforts. What I did not expect, was that Firefighters and EMS Fund would find Saybrook CARES on social media and reach out to me.”

– Will Anderson

“I believe we have been well received, and have had the opportunity to share ideas about things we never could have or would have thought about on our own. We received financial assistance that will enable us to get the word out, to create a positive image about this levy. Quite frankly what we have received from Firefighters and EMS Fund is not something we could have done on our own.”

– Chief Clifford Mason, Refugee Canyon Joint Fire District
