A bingo night fundraiser also will be held to benefit Hancock County companies, Yost said.
The Hancock Fire Co. is calling on other area fire companies, local governments and police departments to donate any surplus equipment, which will be hauled to the companies in Hancock County, Yost said.
It also is asking residents, churches and other organizations to pitch in with clothing, toiletries, water, nonperishable food and other necessities.
"Not only did these firefighters lose most of their fire company, but they lost personally as well," Yost said in a written statement. "They are trying to help their neighbors while dealing with their own loss."
Hancock County has a population of 42,967, according to the Hancock County Chamber of Commerce's Web site. County officials there could not be reached for comment Thursday.
Yost said he found out about Hancock County by watching and reading news about the storm's devastation.
Because of the shared name, he said he thought it would be nice to help out.
After doing some research, Yost discovered Hancock County's small fire departments lost a significant amount of equipment. Some even lost firetrucks, he said.
"I learned there is a West Hancock Volunteer Fire and Rescue among other companies in that county," Yost said in the statement. "They lost all their equipment except for a mini-pumper. Only a shell of their building remains and they lost everything inside it."
Monetary donations may be mailed to Hancock County Relief Fund, Hancock Fire Co., 3 Fulton St., Hancock, MD 21750. Money and equipment also may be dropped off at the fire station.
