A donation program has provided funds to volunteer fire departments. The program, established in 1993, collects small amounts from participating members by rounding up their bills. Members typically contribute a minimal amount, around $6 annually, which collectively makes a significant impact.

The program recently distributed $60,000 to 40 departments. Each department received $1,500. This donation is particularly timely given current wildfire dangers.

Further information about the donation program and the departments that received funding is available from the source. The program aims to support communities and individuals in need.
