Every day our volunteers support their community – and while our volunteers are happy with a simple thanks, sometimes members of the community wish to make a financial donation to their local brigade. Donations are for the benefit of volunteer brigades and are always gratefully received. Donations may be accepted directly by a brigade, or through the NSW RFS’s Brigades and Donations Trust fund to help benefit all brigades. Since 2012, more than $1million of equipment, machinery and training aids
