Thank You For Your Support At The 2024 Coastal Virginia Wine Fest!

The Virginia Beach Rescue Squad Foundation supports an independent and vital emergency medical care and transport system – one of the largest in the country that relies predominantly on well-trained, skilled and dedicated volunteers.

Some 800+ men and women from every walk of life serve the community under the direction of the City of Virginia Beach EMS Department. There are ten squads altogether throughout the 255-square mile wide city, the 41st most populous in the nation with nearly 450,000 residents. Each squad is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that finances its operational needs through individual fundraising. As a result, pre-hospital emergency medical care in the City of Virginia Beach is free to all and contributes to over $23-million in annual cost savings to the taxpayers.
