Dear Friends and Neighbors: 

The 90 dedicated men and women of the community who comprise the Glen Cove Volunteer Fire Department are all volunteers. We are a registered 501c3 organization, so please take a moment to help us with a tax deductible donation. In 2026 alone, we responded to over 700 calls for help. Perhaps you were unaware that our highly trained members not only respond to fire calls, but also respond to motor vehicle accidents, rescue calls and nature related emergencies. We are there for you 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Please help us to help you. 

Our 2026 Fund Drive is now in progress and we are appealing to you for your financial assistance in making it another successful year. With your contributions we are able to continue to fund attendance at the necessary seminars and classes which provide your volunteers with the latest fire-fighting and emergency techniques. Participation in these courses and training exercises required 4,000 man hours during last year. The Department also participates in a variety of community programs by sponsoring Jr. Baseball, Soccer and Football associations and assisting civic and religious organizations year round. 

The City of Glen Cove fire tax is less than $68.00 per household, and 2% of the city’s overall budget. Please show your volunteers that you appreciate their efforts by donating to our annual fund drive. 

Thank you in advance for your continued support. 

Sincerely yours,

Bobby M. Citko
