Press ResourcesSave KVEC is maintained by a group of Keokuk residents who care about the Keokuk Volunteer Emergency Corps (KVEC) and its role in our community. KVEC is a volunteer-based emergency service, and like any organization that depends on public trust and public support, it benefits from open communication with the people it serves.
Over the past year, several changes in how KVEC communicates with the public — including the removal of its Facebook page — have made it harder for residents to stay informed or ask questions through the channels they were used to. This site exists to provide an alternative space for that conversation, and to keep a public record of documentation, updates, and community input related to KVEC.
Our goal is accountability, transparency, and honest communication — not conflict. We welcome participation from KVEC's leadership, staff, and volunteers, as well as from residents who want to share observations, ask questions, or stay informed. A well-supported, well-trusted KVEC is good for everyone in Keokuk.
