Caller ID says "FIRE CHARITFUND". They call twice in one day about 8 hours apart. Each time they leave no message.
I call back after hours (using *67 to block my number). I hear the following, "the number you have dialed is not in service. Please, check the number and try again."
So a spoofed caller ID and the inability to be called back. Smells like a SCAM.
Recently, I summarized a newspaper article about a SCAM firefighters support group:

Do not give to organization that cold calls you like that - they are a rip off and give the police and fire folks a bad name - let alone only giving very little $$ to the cause they are collecting for. Find a local charity to give to if you have too much money. By giving local you can see your donation in action.
