About Us

Greater Springfield Volunteer Fire Department is a member of the Fairfax County Fire & Rescue Department . The department is a combined system made up of career Firefighters and Paramedics whom staff the station 24 x 7 x 365 and volunteers who provide supplemental staffing.

GSVFD Volunteers provide additional staffing on Engines, Trucks & Medic Units. In addition to providing additional staffing, volunteer members routinely place into service additional reserve Engines, Ambulances, Brush Units, Utility Plows and Canteen/Rehab Units.

The first Fire House was a converted gas station in 1966.

Our Mission :

As volunteers, our mission is to support and work jointly with career Firefighters and Paramedics to:

  1. Prevent fires and medical emergencies from occurring through safety education;
  2. Control fire, medical, and other emergencies should prevention fail; and
  3. Enhance the level of emergency services provided to the citizens by the County of Fairfax.

The first Fire House was a converted gas station in 1966

First Ambulance & Engine - 1966

1954 International - "Mildred"

GSVFD - Station 22 on Backlick Rd - 1984

Hunger does not take a summer vacation. Please help local families by donation to #echo this month 🇺🇸❤️Your Food Donations Are Needed
We are grateful to all of our neighbors who contributed to the Postal Workers Food Drive last month. We did not take in the pre-pandemic quantity of donations in this drive that we were hoping for. Donations tend to drop off in the summer so your support for ECHO's Food Pantry is critical. Thanks for shopping for ECHO.
