Royersford Fire Dept. Gets $265K Grant

ROYERSFORD, PA — The Royersford Fire Department announced exciting news this week, as they are the recipients of a significant grant.

The department has been awarded $265,000 as part of the SAFER Grant program, designed to help departments maintain the number of trained firefighters on their squad.

Royersford will use a portion of the money from the program — the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response — for training of overnight crews. The rest will be used for recruitment campaigns.

The department credited their treasurer, Bill Latch, on helping them land the important funds.
