Princeville NC was founded by free slaves in 1865 and the town was incorporated in 1885. Princeville Volunteer Fire Department was destroyed from the devastating waters of Hurricane Matthew. The departments fire apparatus has major water damage, they lost the majority of their equipment and the department will need to be rebuilded. The citizens of this town cannot begin to restore their lives until the fire department can safely secure the residences. We need your help. Any amount you can give would be greatly appreciated and used appropiately to secure fire and rescue protection for this historic town.
