Volunteer Opportunities

“If you do this job properly, there is nothing more noble you will do with your life”

Approximately 55% of Florida citizens (around 12 million residents) depend on volunteer firefighters to help protect their community. In addition, the State of Florida receives approximately 131 million visitors every year. To keep all of these residents and visitors safe, it's critical that individuals in the community volunteer with their local fire departments. Currently more than 315 fire departments throughout the State of Florida utilize volunteers to sustain their operations.


Volunteering as an emergency responder provides both a rewarding experience and an extraordinary way to give back and serve your community. The job is not an easy one and it requires a high level of dedication, sacrifice, discipline, and mental/physical stamina.
