Prospect Hill Volunteer Fire Department

Just a little history on our organization and the services we provide. Prospect Hill Volunteer Fire Department (PHVFD) is located in the southeastern portion of Caswell County . We serve a population of around 3500 citizens along with providing mutual aid to neighboring fire departments in Caswell, Alamance, Person, and Orange counties. We provide fire protection, fire prevention , and non transport first responder/emt responses. The department is comprised of 27 all volunteer fire fighters backed by a dedicated group of auxiliary support. PHVFD runs on average, 180 calls a year with medical responses being the majority of those calls. PHVFD was incorporated in 1964 in a two bay fire house that is a part of the current department to this date. PHVFD is funded partially by county tax monies but we would be unable to provide our services with this alone. This is where the community comes into play. Without the excellent support we receive through fund raisers and donations from our community we could not provide the services that we do. Along those lines in the fall of 2006 with the support of the community we where able to plan and construct a new addition to the fire department that houses a full kitchen along with ample seating in the main area. There are also two bathrooms equipped with showers. This is so the building could be used as an emergency shelter in the event of disasters. The building is also available for rent for special events and parties. We hope you will enjoy our site and stop by to visit again.
