New Jersey American Water has announced 2015 guidelines for its grant program for volunteer fire departments and emergency responders located in the company’s service areas.

New Jersey American Water Volunteer Firefighter and Emergency Responder grants will be awarded to cover the costs associated with the purchase of personal protective gear, communications equipment, firefighting tools, water handling equipment, training, and related activities/materials used to support the operations of volunteer fire departments and emergency responders.

The maximum grant amount is $1,000.

Only uniformed volunteer fire departments in New Jersey American Water’s service territory are eligible to apply for a grant. Regional or county-wide applications are encouraged to maximize the number of fire and emergency organizations that would benefit from the grant.
