Welcome to the Official Website for the Good Will Fire Company

The Good Will Fire Company No. 2 is a 100% volunteer fire service that protects the lives and property of the communities of the Borough of West Chester, West Goshen Township, Westtown Township, Birmingham Township, East Bradford Township, and the entire township of Thornbury in Chester County. Organized over 175 years ago in 1833 we are one of three volunteer fire companies that cover our community. Together these three stations make up the West Chester Fire Department.

Our station is located at 552 East Union Street in the Borough of West Chester. We respond to an average of 500 alarms per year and house five pieces of apparatus. We have an active crew of approximately 40 men and women that volunteer their time to train and respond to the calls for help in our community.

Located on our Maltese Cross are the following words, Dedication, Pride, and Valor. The Good Will Fire Company strives to use this motto in every response we make to our community.

Dedication: Complete and wholehearted fidelity.
Pride: Satisfaction taken in an achievement.
Valor: Courage and boldness, as in battle; bravery.

The Good Will Fire Company was awarded the 100 % certification level from the PA State Fire Commissioner's Office.  This level is awarded when 100 % of the fire companies active members hold at least one of the state's certification levels.
