Community Effort: Fire Station Loan Relief
Donation protected
We are a small Volunteer Fire Department in North West Sumner County. We provide fire, first responder, rescue, and public assist services for approximately 70 square miles around the City of Portland.
We have recently built a new Fire Station in the New Deal area to better serve the citizens in our district. This was a huge undertaking for us considering our small budget. We are funded by 100% donations from the county government and from people like you! Our guaranteed funding from the county is $72,000 a year. This barely covers our operational costs, much less upgrades on equipment and paying off our station loan.
We are asking for YOUR help to assist us with paying off the loan for our new station. This project was 15 years in the making and over the last year, has taken hundreds of man-hours to complete. We are excited to move in and we are looking forward to better serving our community. Thank you all for your support!
