RESCUE ONE Foundation
Welcome to the first citizen-inspired foundation in the State of California working entirely in support of its local fire district and paramedic program.
History
RESCUE ONE Foundation, was established in 1977 as a non-profit, philanthropic organization to receive and administer contributions in support of our district's paramedic programs and to purchase equipment for our emergency ambulance service.
Through this unique support program, we help to improve our paramedic program and attendant ambulance services so vital to the welfare of all the residents of Moraga, Orinda and Canyon. The Moraga-Orinda Fire District's paramedic service, the finest in Northern California, is available to you and your family anywhere in our two communities. Over the years our Fire District has answered thousands of calls from victims of heart attacks, accidents, and sudden illness. With financial help from RESCUE ONE Foundation, our paramedic units have communication links with local hospital emergency rooms and can provide critical information for cardiac patients.
Contributions
RESCUE ONE Foundation donors have made possible the purchase of such vital items such as CPR training equipment, heavy rescue equipment, and cardiac monitors/defibrillators.
Your contribution helps RESCUE ONE Foundation supplement the Fire District's budget for rescue equipment and supplies. Past contributors have included community business organizations, service clubs and hundreds of grateful residents.
All contributions are fully tax deductible, and may be made in the form of:
- Gifts of appreciation
- Memorials
- Annual donations
