The generous donations we receive from the community and businesses are our main source of income to support our operations.

Eureka is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt non-profit organization thus all donations are generally tax deductible (please consult an attorney or accountant for answers to your specific situation).

Eureka mails out two separate request for funds each year. In January of each year we send out a donation request to fund our "Fire Division" (this form is usually red in color).  Our "EMS Division" mails out an EMS Subscription Form (this form is usually blue in color) in late June of each year. Throughout the year we hold other fund raisers such as carnival, bingo, pit sandwich sales, fish fry, shrimp and crab feeds and other types of events to help raise funds.
