Green Lane Fire Co received a $146,576 Project Grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) under the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) program (CFDA 97.044), awarded on September 27, 2025, with completion targeted for September 26, 2027. The AFG program funds fire departments and emergency response organizations to enhance public and firefighter safety through equipment acquisition, personnel training, personal protective equipment (PPE) compliance, facility improvements, and emergency response vehicle procurement. While specific deliverables for this award are not detailed in the grant documentation, typical AFG funding supports fire departments in equipping personnel to recognized standards, outfitting responders with compliant protective equipment, and acquiring or modifying facilities and equipment to improve operational readiness and personnel safety.
The award represents support for Green Lane Fire Co's emergency response capabilities in Green Lane, Pennsylvania, consistent with FEMA's broader AFG portfolio, which has obligated $6.5 billion across over 38,000 awards nationwide. This moderate-sized grant falls within the common funding range for fire departments seeking to strengthen their operational infrastructure and safety protocols.
