Wine Country to the Rescue Purchases 4 LUCAS Devices with 2023 Fundraising Proceeds

Updated: Dec 10


We are excited to announce a significant achievement made possible by the generosity of our community! Thanks to funds raised during the 2023 Wine Country to the Rescue charity auction and dinner dance, we were able to purchase four LUCAS Chest Compression Systems for the firefighters and emergency medical responders serving Northern Sonoma County.


What is a LUCAS Device?

The LUCAS Chest Compression System is a life-saving tool that provides consistent, high-quality chest compressions during CPR. Unlike manual compressions, the LUCAS device ensures uninterrupted and effective compressions, even during transport or in challenging situations. This means better outcomes for patients experiencing cardiac arrest and more opportunities for our first responders to save lives.


Strengthening Emergency Response

These devices will be distributed across our region to fire departments in Geyserville, Healdsburg, Cloverdale, and the Dry Creek Rancheria, ensuring that communities throughout Northern Sonoma County benefit from this cutting-edge technology. The addition of these tools enhances the ability of our firefighters and EMTs to deliver critical care when it’s needed most.

Your generosity empowers us to provide the resources and equipment our first responders need to keep our communities safe.


A Heartfelt Thank You

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who contributed to making this possible. From auction bidders to corporate sponsors, your commitment to our mission is helping save lives.


Looking Ahead

This accomplishment inspires us to continue raising the bar in supporting our local heroes. As we gear up for future events, we invite you to join us in making an even bigger impact. Together, we can ensure that our firefighters and emergency responders have the tools and resources they need to protect us all.

Thank you for being a part of the Wine Country to the Rescue family. Let’s keep building a safer, stronger community—one life-saving device at a time!
