Six Nebraska volunteer fire departments are getting a major boost—each receiving $10,000 from State Farm’s Good Neighbor Firefighter Safety Program, designed to equip them with critical gear and training. Since 2024, the program has awarded $4 million nationwide to help volunteer departments, who make up 82% of all U.S. fire services, operate safely and effectively despite tight budgets. The funded departments in Nebraska—Decatur, Fordyce, Gering, Gurley, Oconto, and Syracuse—will use the money for personal protective equipment, rescue tools, and communication devices. Bonus: the first 2,000 applicants also get free NVFC memberships for ongoing training and support. This vital investment honors the unsung heroes keeping communities safe—one call at a time.
