The largest and most valuable assets to our organization are the Volunteers who call the Molalla area home. Molalla Fire District meets the emergency needs of citizens with a diversified Career and Volunteer workforce. Our programs depend upon Volunteers in many diverse capacities.
Our volunteer firefighters are a mix of residents of our fire district and volunteers residing outside of the fire district. Out of district volunteers sign up for duty shifts, in which they stay at the fire station for a shift. Shifts available include daytime (0800-1800), nighttime (1800-0800) and full day (0800-0800). Regular volunteers respond from their homes and places of work for emergencies, but are also able to sign up for shifts.
Volunteer firefighters respond to a multitude of incidents, ranging from fires, motor vehicle accidents, medical emergencies, hazardous material spills, and other public services. Our firefighters frequently obtain various levels of emergency, medical training, ranging from Emergency Medical Responders to Paramedics.
If you are a healthy adult who embraces these same values and who wants to give back to the community and/or develop yourself for the future, then we want to meet you. Consider the commitment you would be making to yourself and the community, then take the time to carefully complete a Volunteer Application, or stop by our fire station to receive a ride along form and tour our facility.
