COMMUNITY SUPPORT

We are constantly looking at ways to improve our support for the PFPD, the Pioneer PTO, and the Community. One of the items we are working on for the future is to set up an structure to provide information during critical fires, such as last year’s Sand Fire. This is still in the works, but is very important to us.

 

  • Annual Easter Egg Hunt
  • Benevolent fund that is used to help families in need
  • Christmas for a local family who cannot afford to provide for their families
  • Pancake Breakfast

HELPING PFPD

The PVFA also provides funds for Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs or more commonly referred to as turnouts), equipment upgrades, medical services and whatever is needed to fill in budgetary gaps in the PFPD, which support the comminutes of Coyoteville, Fairplay, Grizzly Flats, Happy Valley, Mount Aukum, Omo Ranch, Sandridge and Somerset.

FUNDRASIERS

First and foremost the PVFA is dedicated to support the PFPD and holds fund raisers (Crab Banquets) each year to provide needed additional funds that cannot be supported via the PFPD annual budgets. 

COMMUNITY SUPPORT

We support the Pioneer PTO and provide monies from our Crab Banquet fundraisers to help enrich our students’ educational experiences through the purchase of items that are not in their budget.
