Letter: Firefighters fund says thanks for caring

On behalf of all the members of the Eastside Firefighters Benevolent Fund, I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the 100 Women Who Care of Snoqualmie Valley.

During the last quarter of 2016 the Eastside Firefighters Benevolent Fund was selected to receive a very generous donation that totaled almost $15,000, from this caring group.

The 100 Women Who Care of Snoqualmie Valley is a dedicated group of women who meet quarterly and select a nominated charity to receive their donation. Our benevolent fund is dedicated to giving back to the communities we protect and will be able to use this generous donation to continue our programs and projects in the Snoqualmie Valley communities.

Their donation, along with Chinook Lumber, helped us complete the home access project for Bev Jorgensen and will allow us to complete other projects including placing AED units in selected facilities and provide firewood for needy community members.

Thanks again so much to the 100 Women Who Care of Snoqualmie Valley for your generous donation and the opportunities it provides for all of Snoqualmie Valley community members.
