Empowering Service – The Legacy and Impact of the Newportville Fire Company Ladies Auxiliary

Join the Legacy of the Newportville Fire Company Ladies Auxiliary

Since its establishment in 1947, the Newportville Fire Company Ladies Auxiliary has been a cornerstone of strength and dedication within our community. Today, our dynamic team of around 30 members continues to thrive, with 11 members celebrating over 20 years of active service and 6 members who are vibrantly contributing in their 70s.

We have a rich history of accomplishments, made possible through the unwavering commitment of our members and the steadfast support of the Fire Company. Our collective efforts have yielded many successes and have positively impacted both the company and the community.

Our bond with the Newportville Fire Company is a source of immense pride. We work in concert with the courageous men and women who selflessly serve our community, ensuring their safety and providing essential support.

Our primary mission is to secure funds for the Fire Company, facilitating necessary station improvements and the procurement of equipment that keeps our firefighters safe. Through various fundraisers and annual events, we not only receive the Fire Company’s full support but also engage with our community to foster participation and unity.

We convene on the first Monday of each month at 7:00 PM. Our meetings are a platform for new ideas and initiatives. We welcome new members who are eager to contribute their time and innovative thoughts to our cause.
