Our annual fundraising event for 2008 is currently in progress. We have mailed over 47,000 letters to property owners in Randolph County asking for their monetary support. Donations received from this event go towards the purchase of specialized rescue equipment and a future planned expansion of our headquarters building located in Asheboro. As a 501-C-3 non-profit, 100% of all donations received from the fundraiser goes to our organization and is tax deductable. Donations from private citizens, civic groups, and industry account to 40% of our annual budget. Without these donations our organization could not provide the lifesavings services we provide to the citizens of Randolph County.
