We are excited to participate in the GivingTuesday campaign again this year! What’s Giving Tuesday? It’s a global generosity movement—the nonprofit response to excessive consumption on black Friday and cyber Monday. It’s about donating, supporting, collaborating, and celebrating generosity.

Giving Tuesday is coming up on November 30th, but you don’t need to wait until the end of the month. You can donate now by clicking this link:

Can’t donate? We get it. It’s been a rough year for all of us. You can still help us out by sharing this post with your own networks to help us spread the word.

THANK YOU for being on this journey with us!

We are gearing up for a week-long Campaign in honor of the victims, survivors, families, first responders and all those affected by the events of 9/11. We believe in the power of service to others as a way to uplift and care for our communities. Next week our staff will be sharing their good deeds as a tribute and reflection of the 20th anniversary of #9/11. You can participate too! Stay tuned for more!

Wish this crew the best of luck as they start their season! They received some great training last week from Colorado Firecamp, usually the first stop for our VFC crews in Colorado!

A couple things we take pride in: training the Veteran Fire Corps crews & developing our staff/cadre of instructors. Like with S-130/190 Basic Firefighter, #287 for the Southwest Conservation Corps in August, 2021 taught by Leslie Parkes & Hilary Hastings.
