Harborview Volunteer Fire Department is a charitable organization based in Goldboro, Nova Scotia, classified by the CRA under community resource organizations.

In its fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, it reported $154K in revenue and $120K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 78% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2022, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $2,997.
