Grants or Other Donations:

  • The Leary Firefighters Foundation generously donated to the Glenburn RFPD towards the completion of the new fire station. One of our greatest needs following the fire was the rebuilding of the fire station itself, and money for a building can be difficult to acquire. So we want to extent a special thanks to the Leary Firefighters Foundation for their generosity in helping to rebuild our department and help make our community safe. The foundation purchased the interior lining of the new fire-station.
  • Farden Construction generously donated the use of their heavy equipment building in Glenburn for us to use while we were awaiting the construction of our new building. They also contributed in numerous ways to the rebuilding efforts here. Their generosity and commitment to the fire station was instrumental to the operations of the department during the two years we did not have a building.
  • Steven’s Welding has continually aided our station in the construction and manufacturing of much needed parts/supplies both before the rebuilding effort and during the rebuilding effort. Thank you for all you have done for us and continue to do for us.
  • Firehouse Subs awarded the Glenburn Rural Fire Station money to purchase an air bottle refill station. These stations are critical in every department for the safe refilling of breathing air in the Self-Contained Breathing Apparatuses (SCBAs) which firefighters use every day. The Firehouse Subs grant program makes public safety throughout the country a priority of their business. Thank you for your donation.
  • North Star Community Credit Union donated to the rebuilding of the fire station, additionally they purchased a large screen TV to use in our training room. NSCCU customers live throughout our fire district and will benefit from North Star’s generous donation.
