"Living On Volunteer Efforts"
Welcome
The
Love Volunteer Fire Department proudly protects 4,000+ people in a
40-square-mile area of southwest Desoto County, Mississippi. We are an
all-volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to providing the highest
quality Fire, Rescue, and Emergency Medical Services to our community.
LFD-Station 10 is one of 10 volunteer fire departments in the county. The
volunteer departments work hand-in-hand with 4 career city departments serving a
population of over 110,000.
In addition to Fire and Rescue services, the LFD is one of only a few stations
in Desoto County to operate a Jr. Firefighter Program through the Boy Scouts of
America. In 2002, we proudly added Explorer Post 602
to allow young adults
(14-21) interested in the fire service, the opportunity to experience it hands
on.
Our most ambitious in-house challenge has just begun: With the Insurance
Companies raising insurance premiums, Love Fire Department is working closely
with the County Fire Coordinator, Board of Supervisors, and MS. Rating Bureau to
lower the fire rating to a class 9. This would allow for lower insurance premiums for
the covered area.
Congratulations
