Belle Valley Fire Department

 100% Volunteer - 100% Community-Funded

Belle Valley Fire Department proudly
serves Millcreek Township, Pennsylvania, as a fully volunteer organization
committed to protecting lives and property. For decades, our members have
answered the call—day and night—without pay, fueled solely by dedication to our
neighbors.

Today, we face a critical challenge.
Belle Valley no longer receives funding from the township Millcreek Township.
The recently implemented “fire tax” on Millcreek Township homeowners goes only
to the paid department – none of it is given to the volunteer departments. With
no tax support, we rely entirely on donations and fundraisers to keep our
trucks running, our equipment safe, and our volunteers ready, and our community
better protected.

Your support helps us purchase vital
gear, maintain lifesaving equipment, provide essential training, and maintain
the station and property.

Every dollar makes a difference in
keeping our community safe.

Please consider
donating today. We serve because we care—but we can’t do it without you.

The
Belle Valley Fire Department celebrates 87 Years of continuous service to the
community, this year!

BVFD operates
from one station and utilizes two engines, an aerial tower, one heavy rescue,
and a QRS/support vehicle. We respond to a very
diverse region of Erie County including urban, suburban and rural areas. These
response districts (both first due and mutual aid) include everything from
residential buildings to industrial parks, high rises to farms,
entertainment facilities to waterfront –and everything in between.

We are
one of five Millcreek Township fire departments that protect a population of
over 50,000 residents. Belle Valley, along with Kearsarge, West Lake, Lake
Shore and West Ridge Fire Departments not only provide fire protection for the
Township.

We are always looking for new members. If you are
interested in being a firefighter, traffic control/support member, or auxiliary
member – we would be glad to have you in our family.

If you
would like to help in other capacities such as mechanical, computers, house cleaning
or whatever, but just don’t want to be an actual firefighter, that’s fine too.
We have an associate membership just for you. If you’re interested in joining
our department in any capacity, call us at (814) 825-4359 or stop by the
fire house on Wednesdays after 7:00 PM!
