On Tuesday, January 24, Dianne Wilson of Moraga Royale presented Rescue One Foundation President, Greg Reams, with a donation of $2,000, the proceeds of their annual "Festival of Trees" silent auction fundraiser.
Each year, Moraga Royale sponsors the Festival of Trees event to benefit Rescue One, a non-profit organization dedicated to the Moraga-Orinda Fire District and emergency medical services in the Moraga and Orinda area. The trees are provided by Moraga Royale and decorated by local businesses, organizations and residents. The themed trees and accompanying gift packages were purchased through a silent auction that ended on December 15, 2011.
"The Rescue One Foundation has been an invaluable benefit to the District and has donated funds for the District to purchase life-saving equipment for use by our firefighters" Said MOFD Fire Chief Randall Bradley, "and support of the community and organizations like Moraga Royale helps Rescue One continue their good works."
In the past year, the Rescue One Foundation donated the funds for the District to purchase a new Lucas 2 Chest Compression Device used in administering CPR and a LifePack 15 Defibrillator. Both of these devices are carried on the District's advanced life support ambulances.
The Moraga-Orinda Fire District would like to thank Moraga Royale and our community for their continued support of the Rescue One Foundation.
