During an emergency, we fall back on our training. Help us give islanders training to use a fire extinguisher. This high-quality, hands-on training will empower islanders to respond to a small fire so it doesn't become a big one.

This training would let community members:

โœ… Not just learn the steps but actually pull the pin, aim, squeeze, and sweep (PASS) with a refillable chemical-free extinguisher

โœ… Practice the PASS technique until they master it with a prop that responds to their method

โœ… Get safe, controlled experience with 3 different classes of fire using specialized props (trash can, pan/kitchen, motor, paint locker)

Today is the final day of the Spring campaign. Help us cross the finish line and bring this powerful training tool to Orcas Island.

Would you know how to use a fire extinguisher in an emergency?
Most people donโ€™t... because theyโ€™ve never practiced.

Thatโ€™s exactly why weโ€™re raising funds to bring the LION Intelligent Training System to Orcas. It allows people to safely experience what itโ€™s like to put out a real fire with a fire extinguisher before it actually matters.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Small fires can turn serious in seconds
๐Ÿ”ฅ Confidence comes from practice
๐Ÿ”ฅ Training saves lives

Our campaign includes the funds for 10 FREE community classes in 2026.
