Support Your Volunteer Firefighters

​DONATE NOW

For those who are unable to volunteer, donating is a great way to make a difference!
We kindly ask contributions of $75 from households and $125 from businesses. 
Tired of writing checks? Well you can donate online with a credit or debit card. This method is easier now more than ever! Clicking above will redirect you to our donation page through eServices Technology. This donation company is locally owned and operated right here in Whitehall Borough! Thank you to everyone who chooses to donate.
Donation checks made payable to the Whitehall Fire Company may be sent to 4400 Clairton Blvd, Pittsburgh, PA 15236.
Please allow up to 2 weeks for your check to be cashed. Please do not be alarmed if it is not cashed within a few days after mailing.
​FRAUD ALERT: Residents have been reporting that a person has been calling and requesting that they make a donation over the phone. Do not do this! We will never ask residents to make donations over the phone. Residents may donate anytime by check, online, or drop-off. The Company also does not sell t-shirts to the public. This scam is usually seen via text messages.
