Your Community Needs You
Join the men and women who answer the call when it matters most. No experience required — we'll train you.
Why Volunteer?
Volunteering with WFPD is one of the most meaningful things you can do for your neighbors.
Serve Your Neighbors
When someone in Williamsville has the worst day of their life, you can be the one who shows up to help. There is no greater calling.
Training Provided
We provide all training at no cost to you — firefighter certifications, EMT training, hazmat awareness, and ongoing education. You show up willing to learn; we handle the rest.
No Experience Needed
You don't need a background in fire or EMS. Many of our members started with zero experience. All you need is the willingness to serve.
Firefighting
Respond to structure fires, vehicle fires, grass fires, and more. Learn to operate apparatus, attack fires, and perform search and rescue.
Emergency Medical
Provide critical first-response medical care to your community. EMT training is available and the majority of our calls are medical in nature.
Brotherhood
The fire service builds bonds that last a lifetime. You'll train together, respond together, and become part of a team that has each other's backs.
