2024 Fund Drive Now In Progress!

Our Annual Fund Drive helps us to offset our Day to Day Operational Costs so that we can continue to deliver the best possible care that you expect when you dial 9-1-1. Your Tax Deductible Contribution no matter the amount, will be utilized in many facets of our daily operations. As we have seen our call volumes increase significantly this past year, our Annual Fund Drive helps us to keep up with the increasing costs to deliver our services. No amount is too small, every single contribution helps us to help you.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all of you who donated to our 1st Annual Capital Campaign. Even though we were unable to reach our goal of $100,000.00, we are that much closer to replacing some of our outdated equipment.

About us

Delaware City Fire Company

In the early morning hours of January 7, 1887, a fire started in the back of Holliday’s Poolroom on lower Clinton Street and spread quickly before it was discovered. It raced completely out of control. The city fathers held a quick meeting and voted to telegraph the Wilmington Police Department to request fire equipment and assistance.
