Severe Wildfire Disaster Declaration Emergency GrantThe Severe Wildfire Disaster Declaration Emergency Grant is open for departments that incurred damage/loss beginning July 24, 2023 while responding to fires in one of the declared counties. Application Deadline is September 15th. ************************************** “Volunteer firefighters are our first line of defense against wildfires in Texas,” said Wes Moorehead, Texas A&M Forest Service Fire Chief. “During this active summer season, these firefighters are responding to wildfires daily. They work in extreme conditions that not only challenge them physically but also cause their equipment to become worn and damaged.” In addition to preventing and responding to wildfires, Texas A&M Forest Service helps firefighters by administering emergency grants through the Rural Volunteer Fire Department Assistance Program. The emergency grants fund essential equipment that needs repairing and replacement damaged during response efforts. APPLY HERE - https://tinyurl.com/5n96bjp8
