Established in 1941, the Tiburon Volunteer Fire Department continues to provide vital support to the Tiburon Fire District. With a volunteer staff of 12, members living in the communities of Tiburon and Belvedere assist with administrative tasks, wildfire prevention efforts, and projects within the District and the community.
The Volunteer Fire Department is funded through donations and fundraisers such as the annual Firefighters Ball. Funds raised by the Volunteer Fire Department support activities throughout the community. Over the years, the Volunteer Fire Department has funded the AED (automatic defibrillator) Program, Get Ready 94920 Disaster Preparedness Program, Chipper Days in 2019, and numerous contributions to the Tiburon Fire District’s ongoing mission of top quality programs for the community.
The Tiburon Volunteer Firefighters represent an integral part of our organization. They serve as supplemental staffing, in support of the paid full-time staff, for extreme conditions such as major storms, earthquakes, floods or any other natural disasters. Our Volunteers donate their time in order to participate in aspects of Department functions.
Our Volunteers contribute greatly and are a large part of our public relations organization – they remind us of what true service still can be.
