DONATE TO THE BELL CANYON VOLUNTEER WILDLAND FIRE DEPARTMENT TODAY!

The BCVWFD was formed in 2020 with a primary mission to protect Bell Canyon residents and property by supporting and augmenting local fire agencies. Members are trained wildland firefighters certified by the California Office of the State Fire Marshal/State Fire Training program. The BCVWFD is NOT a replacement for 911 emergency resources, but offers specific, limited emergency/medical services. Training without tools can only go so far - and running a volunteer fire department to serve a community of over 750 homes takes financial resources. Firefighters participate in fire preparedness drills several times a month and devote their time to the protection and service of Bell Canyon.

The BCVWFD was created in response to a collective experience of the Woolsey Fire of 2018 - most department members stayed in the canyon to fight the fire, and one even lost his home. Residents wanted a way to have better control over shared community destiny and the BCVWFD was born. BCVWFD members are also available to advise and assist with pool fire pump installation and snake removal/relocation.

Your donation will help the Bell Canyon Volunteer Wildland Fire Department continue to purchase the fire suppression equipment, tools, PPE, and further training we need to help defend our canyon and its residents. You can make an annual one-time tax-deductible donation, or break up your donation into monthly installments. Does your employer match eligible employee contributions? You can double your donation amount by giving through them!

We are an independent, non-profit organization that is fully funded by community supported donations and staffed by volunteer residents. From firefighting assistance to pool pump installation to snake relocation - the Bell Canyon Volunteer Wildland Fire Department benefits all residents within the gates. Make your tax-deductible donation TODAY and support those that volunteer to support you, your family, and your neighbors. We look forward to putting your donation to good use as we build up and sustain the Bell Canyon Volunteer Wildland Fire Department!
