I chose to join BVFRD to reconnect with a passion that began years ago. What keeps me here is helping my neighbors when they need it most, and serving alongside a team that's making a real difference in our community
Volunteering is an important way to connect with and support your local community. Volunteering at Burke has the added bonus of working with a variety of people who all are working together for the common purpose of service and you get to learn and grow important skills.
Volunteering with BVFRD lets me use my skills to strengthen BVFRD through planning, fundraising, and day-to-day support. It’s rewarding to know my work helps us serve our neighbors when they need us most.
Whether you're interested in becoming an administrative or operational member, like an EMT or Fire Fighter, we'll guide you through the process. Learn more about becoming a volunteer and how to get started on our Get Involved page.
Your gift helps provide the equipment, training, and resources our volunteers need to respond effectively when our community needs us most. BVFRD purchases and maintains its own emergency apparatus and specialized equipment because these costs are not covered by Fairfax County so every donation directly helps equip the volunteers who protect our community.
