The Franklin Borough Fire Department is an all-volunteer department comprised of approximately 20 volunteer members who strive to provide the highest level of firefighting, technical rescue, hazardous materials response, and emergency medical services using a fleet consisting of a rescue/engine and squad. The department also has an ambulance that is operated through Conemaugh Valley Regional EMS, which is a joint venture with the Cover Hill and East Taylor Township Fire Departments. Our volunteers spend countless hours maintaining equipment, raising funds, and completing extensive training in all aspects of emergency response, in addition to answering calls at all hours. Our department has been recognized for having over 75% of its active members certified to meet national standards as Firefighters, Fire Officers, Rescue Technicians, and in Hazardous Materials Operations. Many members are also certified as Emergency Medical Technicians or Paramedics.

Why Franklin Borough Fire Department?

By volunteering with our fire department, you will be performing an important job while serving your community and will gain training and life experience that will help prepare you for any situation. You will be able to have immense pride in the knowledge and skills you acquire through your training. Your brother and sister firefighters will become a “second family”, forming lifelong friendships and some of the strongest bonds that you will ever form.
And if you don’t want to fight fires, that’s okay, there are many other jobs that we need help with around the fire department that don’t involve responding to emergencies, such as:
Administrative work, fire safety education, fundraising, grant writing, public outreach/community events, and station and equipment maintenance.
