Washington Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad

Washington Volunteer Fire Department was established in 1879 and its Rescue services were added in 1961 to serve the residents of the City of Washington and the surrounding communities for any and all Fire and Medical Emergencies. The funds from the Lowe’s Hometown Grant will update and renovate the station kitchen with new cabinets, appliances, countertops and flooring. In doing so, this will provide full time staff and dedicated volunteers with a source of comfort for all they do as well as provide the community of Washington, Illinois a gathering place when needed.
