Fire Truck Replacement
Gun Lake Fire announced an official fundraising campaign in May 2024 to raise funds for the purchase of a new Wildland Fire Truck as the current 1991 model is at the end of its serviceable life.
As a kick start to the campaign, the McLEAN McCUAIG FOUNDATION, a valued community member, has committed to a donation of $50,000 toward the fire truck. GLF is asking the community to match this generous donation. Donations can be made by e-transfer to glfpsfinance@gmail.com or by visiting the GLF “GoFundMe” at
https://www.gofundme.com/f/gun-lake-fire-protection-society-new-firetruck-fundraiser
Achieving this goal will put GLF in a strong position to leverage donated funds to obtain grants to help purchase the truck.
It is important to note that members of GLF, who would have been entitled to compensation under the contract with BCWS during the 2023 Downton Lake Wildfire K71649, voted to donate their compensation to GLF to assist with the purchase of a replacement fire truck.
We extend our sincere thanks to the many community members that have generously donated funds to the purchase of a replacement fire truck since the fire!!
