Norris Fire Dept Gets $10K Grant | Pierre News

Norris Volunteer Fire Department just landed a $10,000 grant from State Farm’s Good Neighbor Firefighter Safety Program — one of 150 departments nationwide to receive funding aimed at upgrading gear and boosting responder safety. Alongside Gayville and Springfield in South Dakota, Norris joins a critical network of volunteer fire crews who rely on tight budgets but deliver heroic service. With 82% of U.S. fire departments run by volunteers, this support is vital — helping them protect communities while staying safe on the job. Since launching in 2024, State Farm and the National Volunteer Fire Council have already invested $4 million, with this latest round continuing their mission to empower everyday heroes.
