The Tennessee Department of Commerce & Insurance and the Tennessee State Fire Marshal’s Office is accepting applications for $10 million in grants through the Volunteer Firefighter Equipment and Training Grant Program.

Created in 2019, the program earmarks monies for the purchase of firefighting equipment (other than fire trucks or vehicles) used to extinguish fires and protect the lives of firefighters, or the grants may be used to help fire departments pay or reimburse the cost share for federal grants that have already been awarded.

Applications will be accepted until Wednesday, November 27th, 2024, at 2:00pm.

Eligible fire departments must hold a valid recognition from the SFMO and have a staff comprised of less than 50% full-time career firefighters.

Departments may make application for a grant via the Tennessee State Fire Marshal’s Office grant application website.

For more information, contact Director of Education and Outreach Michelle Price by email at sfmo.grants@tn.gov
