Why Volunteer?

Operating out of Laurence Harbor and Cliffwood Beach, we specialize in a wide range of emergency response. From building and brush fires to vehicle extrications and ocean rescues, we do it all. Often called upon by neighboring fire companies, our volunteers are always sharpening their skills and preparing for the next emergency. In 2020 alone, we received 185 fire calls and facilitated 33 hands-on training sessions.

At Laurence Harbor Fire Company, volunteering means creating life-long bonds, enhancing life skills, and keeping people and property of Laurence Harbor safe. See why our Harbor Heroes continue to serve our community:
