Benefits are Available to Qualifying Volunteer Members
As a PVFC member you are freely volunteering your time and talents, but there are many benefits beyond the pride and satisfaction you’ll feel by serving.
PVFC is a part of the Loudoun County Combined Fire and Rescue System (LC-CFRS), and volunteers are eligible for benefits based on a point system. Points are earned by performing a variety of operational and administrative activities. Some benefits require that the member earn a certain number of points each year. Benefits include:
