Emergency medical calls make up the majority of calls for service.

That’s where Advanced Provider Response Units (APRUs) make all the difference.

Because of your donations to the LAFD Foundation, APRUs provide advanced, on-scene medical care on scene for lower-acuity calls, helping free up ambulances for emergencies that require hospital transport.

Fast Response Vehicles (FRVs), a sister vehicle to APRUs, are built for speed and agility, allowing firefighters to quickly navigate traffic, narrow streets, and hillside roads while responding to both medical and fire emergencies.

Together, these vehicles help the LAFD send the right resources to the right call, faster.

Your donations make these innovations possible.

Your impact is evident even at the fire station.

Through the Foundation’s Adopt-A-Fire-Station program, donor support has helped transform Fire Station 10 and other stations with updated flooring, new washers and dryers, and fitness equipment.

Your donations don’t just make stations better places to live and work. They help equip firefighters to be proactive, prepared, and ready for whatever emergency comes their way.

And this is just one example of your impact.

📣Introducing July’s Firefighter of the Month: Firefighter/Paramedic Cristian Reynoso from Fire Station 17.

For Reynoso, the philosophy of “leaving things better than you found them” has shaped both his career and his life.

Inspired by his high school football coach, who was also a firefighter, Reynoso pursued firefighting while working at In-N-Out, completing EMT and paramedic school, and gaining experience as an auxiliary firefighter.

His journey to the LAFD wasn’t easy. After facing hiring freezes and plenty of people telling him not to bother, Reynoso stayed focused and continued pursuing his goal. In 2018, he was hired by the LAFD.

Now serving at Fire Station 17 in the Industrial Eastside, Reynoso continues to find ways to improve his station and support the next generation of firefighters. At the heart of everything he does are his wife and two sons, and his commitment to helping people on their worst days.
