Welcome to the Official Website of The
Dauphin County Volunteer Firemen's Association
Effective June 9th, 2023, the DCVFA voted on the proposed by-law amendments, which included moving to bi-annual conventions instead of a yearly convention. This means that that next convention will be in June 2025.
The executive board has decided that a memorial service will still be held during the "off" years in between the conventions.

WILLS FOR HERO'S
In partnership with the Pennsylvania Bar Association Young Lawyers Division, we are proud to bring the Wills for Heroes program to you. Wills for Heroes is a free and easy service that provides Wills, Living Wills, Health Care and Financial Powers of Attorney to first responders and military veterans and their spouses/partners.
If you die without a Will, Pennsylvania’s intestate laws will determine who will receive your property. Undoubtedly, your loved ones’ grief will be overwhelming; a clear expression of your intent, desires, and wishes may help ease some of this inevitable burden. While nobody likes to think about an untimely death, it is best that you express your wishes through a written document. For your family’s peace of mind, please consider this invaluable opportunity, offered completely free to you and your spouse/partner.
On November 4, 2023, volunteer lawyers will be conducting a Wills for Heroes Program for all active and retired Pennsylvania First Responders of Dauphin County and surrounding companies, all sworn personnel and their spouses/significant others as well as Pennsylvania military veterans (please note that proof of affiliation will be requested at the event). The November 4, 2023 event will be held at the Widener Commonwealth School of Law, 3800 Vartan Way in Harrisburg beginning at 11am. Appointments for each person last approximately 1 hour and at the conclusion of it you will have notarized legal documents – a Will, Living Will, and Health Care and Financial Powers of Attorney (or any combination thereof). If you select that you are coming with a spouse/significant other you will have back to back appointments, and the computer will automatically schedule a second appointment. You do not need to schedule a separate appointment. Please schedule your appointment early as this event is sure to fill up fast.
