How to Donate
Credit/Debit/PayPal
Click the RED "Donate Now" box below,
Once you arrive at the donation page, please enter your donation amount there.
Next, there are two optional check boxes: The first box is “Add x.xx to help cover fees”, this amount is determined by the donation amount entered, and selecting this option ensures the Fire Department receives the entire donation.
The second box is “Make this a monthly donation”. Next you will see “Donate with PayPal” and “Donate with Debit or Credit Card”
.
Choose your payment method and follow the onscreen instructions.
Example-1: You make a YEARLY donation of $60 and choose to help cover the fees, you will be charged a one-time amount of $62.29. If you do not choose help cover fees, the $2.29 will be deducted from the $60.00 and the total received by the fire department would be $57.71.
Example 2: You setup a MONTHLY Donation and choose to help cover fees. Your MONTHLYdonation is $10. You will be charged $10.80 per month. The Department will receive $10.00 monthly. (Note, you will need to create a PayPal Account for reoccurring payments.)

Once there you can make your donation to our organization. Look for our department patch as our Venmo Profile image.
As with the Credit/Debit/Paypal, Venmo charges a small fee of 1.9% +$0.10 per tranaction. This fee is deducted from your donation.
Example: if you donate $100 we receive 98.00 .
Fee Schedule= 1.9% ($1.90) + $ 0.10 = $2 in charges
