Friends, family and community came together to support Stevens Fire Company firefighter Justin Birchard and his children Matthew and Mia after their East Cocalico home
was destroyed by fire in the early morning hours of Sunday, January 3. Stevens Fire Chief, Chad Weaver, shared that the family has been blessed by all the assistance. “Within the first
12 hours, volunteers began accepting clothing, toys, gift cards, food and cash for the displaced family. The support has continued throughout the week.”
