When firefighters are called upon to face dangerous wildfires, they sacrifice everything for the good of others. It is with that in mind that moved Woody Faircloth to start his own nonprofit, EmergencyRV.org.
“A lot of people have RVs, but they just have them in storage and don’t use them as much as they use to, so if you donate them to our nonprofit we can give you the full appraised value as a tax deduction,” said Faircloth.
Over the years, he’s donated 90 RVs and trailers to firefighters, Denver 7News reported.
“Some of these firefighters we helped just last year, they drove by their homes as they were being engulfed in flames because they were evacuating the town,” said Faircloth.
Come Friday, he’ll be on the road to the Dixie Fire in California to deliver a RV and a trailer.
“We got called two days ago from the California Fire Foundation, and they told us that, ‘Hey, we’ve got 10 firefighters who lost their homes and we really could use your help,’” said Faircloth.
