Dear Fellow Member of the Woodside-Portola Valley Fire Protection District,

Because of your generosity, important new equipment is now in service throughout the Woodside Fire Protection District —
strengthening emergency response, wildfire preparedness, prevention, and public safety.

Last year, we shared major projects that your contributions helped make possible. We celebrated our new Station 7 in Woodside along with the fire district’s centennial. Today, we are proud to report that Woodside Fire's first Type 3 wildland fire engine and a new Battalion Chief command vehicle are both in service andresponding to emergencies.

These are tangible examples of what happens when our community invests in its fire department.

The Woodside-Portola Valley Fire Protection Foundation exists to supplement public funding for apparatus and equipment
for advanced all-risk emergency response, fire and life safety education, fire prevention, and the district’s strategic facilities
plan – all to enhance the Fire District's ability to prepare for emergencies and protect the communities it serves.

In 2026, donor support is continuing that work — helping expand lifesaving AED coverage, strengthening Woodside Fire's fuel mitigation capabilities, and providing new hands-on fire safety training equipment for our community.

Every contribution, at every level, helps Woodside Fire remain prepared for the emergencies of today while investing in the
capabilities our community will need tomorrow.

To our longtime donors, thank you for your continued commitment. To those considering a first gift, we invite you to join your neighbors in supporting this important work.

In 2025, residents across Woodside, Portola Valley, Emerald Hills, Ladera, Los Trancos, Skyline, and Vista Verde contributed more than $410,000 to support this work. We are deeply grateful for that extraordinary community-wide support.

 Make a donation today!

With thanks for your consideration,
Board of Directors
Woodside-Portola Valley Fire Protection Foundation
