The Voluntary Fire Association of Tias “BOLUNTIS” was formed in March
2005 as a non profit making civil association serving the borough of Tias,
( in the province of Las Palmas, The Canary Islands, Spain), with one aim
- that of protecting it’s community.
Our principal activity is to prevent and extinguish fires, regardless of
the danger and to save lives and property. We count on a well trained team,
capable in various other disciplines including; rescuing people and animals,
disposing of toxic waste or dealing with escaping gases, rescuing people
from wells or high buildings, traffic accidents, demolitions and working
with other emergency services, i.e. police, ambulance, public protection..
As a voluntary organization, we rely on various forms of funding, be it
from local enterprises, public donations or organizing and participating
in fundraising events.
We are always looking for volunteers or contributions for the association,
and if you think you can help, don’t hesitate to contact us on the number
below.
