The East Franklin Township Volunteer Fire Department officially began operations on July 29, 1929, but it had its beginnings much earlier in the minds of a group of men determined to provide better fire protection for the West New Brunswick area of New Jersey. The department began with 12 members; men like Joseph Godrey and Louis Katko Sr. All of the original 12 members are gone now but they are not forgotten for what they did for their neighbors and community.

Our world is better because of selfless volunteers, like the men and women of East Franklin! Salute!
22 years ago today, the United States was hit with the biggest terrorist attack our country has faced to date. Our first responders, firefighters, police officers, medical personnel and military personnel without a 2nd thought went running in to rescue as many lives as possible not knowing if they would make it back.
September 11th, 2001 we still will never forget the sacrifice and dedication to our human race that these first responders showed.
The East Franklin Fire Department asks everyone to take a moment, remember where you were that day and be thankful that heroes like this exist to protect us everyday from the evils of the world.
September 11th, 2023-22 years later, we still will never forget!
