Underhill Jericho Fire Department
Chittenden County, Vermont


The UJFD is truly grateful for the gifts, donations, and equipment grants we receive. The items listed below improve our capabilities to respond to emergency situations and provide a safer environment for both the firefighter and the victim. A lot of the personal protective equipment worn by our firefighters now complies with current National Fire Protection Association and/or Vermont Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards because of external support. Our operating budget allows us to maintain, and slowly replace, our equipment. The grants we receive provide us with an opportunity to provide compliant equipment for a large number of firefighters. Safety is enhanced, and maintenance is minimized, when all firefighters use the same type of equipment. Thank you for your continued support. Below is a list of those organizations that have helped the UJFD.
