How You Can Help!

Our top priority is a replacement Rescue-2 transport vehicle. Check out our proposed Rescue-2 FAQs page for more information on that project.

Because we're an all-volunteer organization, we are first to recognize that many want to help, but don't think they can make the commitment in time, money or effort. You'll be surprised at how easy and painless it is to help.
