Hometown Heroes Grant Applications Are Now Closed!
July 1, 2026
We are thrilled by the incredible response to our 2026 Hometown Heroes Grant Program. A heartfelt thank you to every fire department that took the time to share its story and submit an application.
Over the next few weeks, our team will carefully review each application and begin narrowing the field to our shortlist. Every submission represents a department dedicated to protecting its community, and selecting just one recipient will not be an easy task.
Departments selected for the shortlist will be contacted with a few final qualifying questions. If you applied, please keep an eye on your inbox so you don't miss any communication from our team.
We look forward to announcing this year's Hometown Heroes Grant recipient soon. Thank you again to everyone who applied, and best of luck!
Respectfully,
Lance Dornn
Retired Local 803
