Thank you for supporting our small department. We truly appreciate the generosity!

October is Fire Safety Month, and we're proud to highlight Pipestone Cares' support of local first responders, with 136 donations made to fire departments and emergency response organizations across the communities we serve!

Supporting the people who help keep our employees, families, and neighbors safe is one of the many ways we strive to make a positive impact and strengthen the communities we call home!
