VOLUNTEER BENEFITS

Loudoun volunteers are eligible for a number of benefits based on a “point” system earned through a variety of activities with a minimum of 80 points required per year to be eligible for benefits. Benefits include:

• Vehicle Property Tax: Volunteers residing in Loudoun County may qualify to have their personal property tax significantly reduced or eliminated on one privately owned vehicle
• Free County/Town Vehicle Decal: Volunteers residing in Loudoun County may qualify for a free County and/or Town decal on one privately owned automobile
• Tuition Reimbursement: Regardless of where they live, volunteers may qualify for up to $1,000 per year ($4,000 maximum in lifetime) as a tuition reimbursement at an accredited school or university—even for non-Fire/EMS related classes
• Retirement Program: Volunteers may receive up to $300 per month upon reaching 55 year of age (or later). The amount received depends on number of years of service
• Health Insurance Participation: Within a certain period after joining the system or during open enrollment periods, volunteers may elect to obtain health insurance coverage which cannot be denied. The volunteer will be responsible for both the “employer” and “employee” portions of the plan.
• Business Discounts: Several area merchants provide discounts to members of the fire and rescue system in Loudoun County
