Good morning,

The National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC) is excited to share that two exciting opportunities are now available for volunteer first responders:

• The second entry period is now open for the MSA Cairns® 1836 Fire Helmet Giveaway. Volunteer firefighters who are NVFC members can enter by June 30 to win a personalized Cairns® 1836 Fire Helmet.
• Applications are now being accepted for the 2024 CHEMTREC® HELP (Hazmat Emergencies Local Preparedness) Award. Six volunteer fire departments will be selected to receive $10,000 each to boost their hazmat incident preparedness and response.
