The office of the Illinois State Fire Marshal is now accepting applications from fire departments around the state for the Small Equipment Grant Program. Grants of up to $26,000 are being provided for the purchase of small firefighting and ambulance equipment. All interested departments should send an application to the Fire Marshal, either electronically or postmarked by October 1.
The State Fire Marshal’s Office will host open “office hours” on the web in the coming weeks to assist departments with their applications.
Please reach out to my office by email at bunting@ilhousegop.org or by phone at (779) 218-3070 if you have any questions or would like a letter of support. We are happy to assist any way that we can!
