The steady decline of volunteer firefighters across the United States is becoming problematic. The lack of adequate volunteer firefighters compromises the effective service given to the community as well as the safety of the firefighters. The purpose of this qualitative embedded single case study was to explore community member perceptions of social and economic motivational factors about firefighter participation. The sample was composed of 10 non-volunteer community members, 10 current volunteer firefighters, and 10 previous volunteer firefighters. Analysis of the data was performed to assess community members' perception to volunteer or not volunteer as a volunteer firefighter. The findings demonstrated many of the non-volunteer community members perceptions supported the need to educate the community on the needs of a volunteer fire department, the need to effectively retain those currently involved and to evaluate internal governance. Recommendations for practice were for rural volunteer fire companies to develop a strategic marketing plan built upon the platform of educating community members, actively supporting and maintaining current volunteers. Recommendations for future research included a study about on motivation of high-risk volunteering specifically in the fire service area.
