Several communities in Alberta have recently seen fraudulent fundraising activities. Criminals have been calling and pretending to raise money on behalf of fire departments and other emergency service-related activities.
Please note that Redwood Meadows Emergency Services is funded through your property taxes and grants from other levels of government. The department does not engage people by phone or door-to-door to seek donations from the public or business community and if we were to do so, would have proper fire department picture id.
If you receive a phone call asking for donations on behalf of any emergency service, hang up and call the RCMP non-emergency number for Redwood Meadows at 403-851-8000.
