At last look the Funkstown Fire Company has only received about 17% of their mailers back form the public. Remember that you need to help them to help you. Do you want just 17% of the fire company to come to your house for a fire, or your car crash, or even your heart attack? Please don’t wait until you need them before you support them with funding because at that point it may be too late. If by chance you have thrown out the mailed or it is just plain lost it stop by the Fire Hall and drop off your donation. The added benefit to you is that is tax delectable as they are a not for profit company.
