TFAA is doing a fundraiser at Sawdust and Steel on Saturday, June 15, 2024, from 4 to 8 pm.
We will be selling raffle tickets for $20 per ticket or 6 for $100 to win a 1st prize of 1/2 beef, 2nd and 3rd prizes each of a 1/4 beef from the KG Ranch, custom cut and wrapped at Feddes Family Meats.
Only 1000 tickets will be sold, and we will raffle off the BEEF prizes at this year's Three Forks Rodeo Saturday Night at 1/2 time, July 20, 2024!
TFAA is also having a silent auction at Sawdust and Steel. There will be many items in the silent auction such as camping gear, jewelry from Montana Silversmiths, Life Flight is donating a year membership, and some dinners from Smash Burgers given away during the event.
Sawdust and Steel are also giving away some fun items!!
The ambulance grant that TFAA received back in October 2021 is finally coming this summer. TFAA will be receiving a Ford -450 2024 unit from Apgar Ambulances in Kalispell. However, the ARPA Funds that TFAA also received in early 2022 to pay for needed medical equipment did not go as far as we thought. The cost of supplies and equipment has tripled. Plus, the cost of lights, retractable steps and graphics has increased by double on the new ambulance.
TFAA is a non-profit ambulance service. Over the last five years, we have responded to an average of over 320 calls per year.
NO TAXES are levied to fund this service. TFAA is an all-volunteer crew!!
We are funded exclusively through insurance billing, donations and some grants.
TFAA serves the City of Three Forks, Three Forks Rural Fire District, Willow Creek Rural Fire District, South Broadwater County and pockets of Jefferson County. TFAA covers over 500 square miles.
All the proceeds of this Charitable Fundraiser and Raffle will benefit the Three Forks Area Ambulance Service.
The medical supplies and equipment that are being purchased will help us continue to provide the highest quality of emergency medical care TO YOU and the COMMUNITIES that we serve.
YOUR DONATION IS TAX DEDUCTIBLE AND A DONATION RECEIPT WILL BE PROVIDED UPON REQUEST!
TFAA Volunteer EMTs and Drivers are working hard to meet our Community’s Emergency Medical Needs.
Thank you all for your continued support.
