Pennsylvania Fire Company and Emergency Medical Services Grant

How it works

This is an annual Commonwealth grant program run by the Pennsylvania Office of the State Fire Commissioner. The official page says the program is available to volunteer and career fire companies, emergency medical services, and rescue squads.

What the money covers

The page says eligible projects include:

• Facility improvements
• Equipment purchase/repair
• Debt reduction
• Training and certification
• More

The page does not provide a homeowner benefit, and it does not describe direct home hardening work for individual residents.

Amounts and timing

The official statewide funding page lists this program as opening annually for 45 days in early September. The page does not state a fixed award amount on the current program page excerpt shown here.

What homeowners should know

I am including this because you asked for statewide programs connected to home hardening, but this program funds response organizations rather than homeowners. If your goal is homeowner assistance, this is not a direct match.
