Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District is proud to announce the single largest donation in the department’s history. The family of Evelyne Nordheim selected ICFPD as the recipient of a $220,500.00 donation for the purchase of an ambulance. Evelyne Nordheim was a resident of ICFPD for over 50 years prior to her death in 2013. The new ambulance will be positioned at ICFPD Station Four to serve her friends and neighbors in the Deer Creek Mesa and White Deer Valley neighborhoods and all of the citizens of Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District.
“The new ambulance will replace a 14 year-old vehicle which has served our district well, but is nearing the end of its useful life.” said Chief Randy Simpson. “The ambulance at station four has become our most frequent responding apparatus and will be a great asset for providing emergency medical services across our district. The generous donation from Evelyne Nordheim’s estate will allow our volunteer staff to provide the best possible care to our patients.”
The new ambulance will have all of the equipment needed to provide Advanced Life Support emergency medical care:
• Four wheel drive
• Multiple radios for communicating with surrounding agencies
• ECG monitor/defibrillator for patient assessment
• Medications, supplies and equipment to serve all patients
.
The Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District was one of three organizations to receive donations from the estate of Evelyne Nordheim. The other recipients include the Disabled American Veterans and the Oak Creek, Colorado Fire Department for a building to house their restored original 1938 fire engine. ICFPD plans to purchase an ambulance which duplicates the most recent ambulance acquisition. Standardization will reduce training time and maintenance costs. Placards recognizing Evelyne Nordheim’s donation will be placed inside and outside the ambulance and on ambulance equipment.
ICFPD will receive the donation of $220,500.00 at a ceremony at Station Four, 13877 Grizzly Drive, Littleton, Colorado, on Tuesday March 3, 2015 at 2:00 P.M.
