Brian Lewis is a Volunteer Firefighter serving Mendocino County for 5 years in Leggett, California. On the night of March 1st, Brian was responding to a fire call after hearing the town post office was on fire after a large redwood tree had been struck by lightning. Brian was on his way to respond in the storm when his vehicle hydroplaned resulting in a rollover. He was uninjured but his only vehicle was badly damaged. Immediately after the accident he got a ride and continued to assist the volunteer fire department at the scene of the fire, helping to keep the fire and electrical lines form continuing to burn the surrounding homes and buildings.

Brian began his time volunteering at the fire department in high school. He has helped save countless lives over the years not only in our local community, but has traveled to aid in other counties as well, one of them being the Mosquito Fire in El Dorado, among other fires out of town. Brian was able to buy his 2007 GMC 1500 from the money he earned fighting fires for the state.

Brian is a really good guy that has helped the community a lot, so we are asking for donations to help cover the cost of purchasing a reliable vehicle. Let's help get this guy back on the road!!!
