I VOLUNTEER TO SAVE LIVES
WHAT DO YOU DO?
Volunteer firefighting is a very rewarding and valuable way to serve our community. It
takes dedication and many hours of training to become a firefighter. We volunteer to
keep the lives and property of our Piscataway community safe. We are people just like you
with different backgrounds, but we know everyone brings something special to the team.
Some of the situations you will experience as a firefighter are difficult and can be both
physically and mentally taxing, so a certain level of maturity is required. If you are willing
to put in the time and effort, please give us a call to 732 560 3740 and leave a message
with your name and a phone number.
