Fire & EMS


We assist volunteer fire department and EMS in recruitment and retention. Whether a client needs a new brochure or a high-visibility marketing campaign, Communication Solutions can help.

  • Create a compelling recruitment website, designed to ignite volunteer interest and collect qualified applicant information.
  • Generate positive publicity in local media outlets to promote volunteer opportunities.
  • Leverage social media to drive candidates to your fire company’s website via carefully crafted organic, boosted and geofencing campaigns.
  • Write and design recruitment materials, including brochures, lawn signs and banners.
  • Produce dynamic recruitment videos for social media, websites, ads and presentations.
  • Design recruitment booths and train your volunteers to run them.
  • Organize fire department participation in community events, school programs and untapped opportunities for identifying new volunteers. 
“I thank you for all of your time and talent that you provided to our department during the recruitment campaign from the grant. I feel that it was very successful in that we onboarded 62 new members during that time period.  It certainly helped us continue the 100% volunteer status during the past 4 years.”
- Clifton Laughman, Chief, West Manchester Township Fire Department
