North Pendleton RFPA
Request: $75,000
We request $75,000 to finance a new-to-us Brush truck purchase and associated pumps, hoses and fittings. So far in 2026, North Pendleton RFPA has responded to one large fire at over 8,000 acres, and two mutual aid requests that were less than 10 acres. No structures were lost thus far. Response vehicles to fires this year have all been farmer or rancher owned vehicles or tractors, which are not equipped for fighting fires.
