Project Pink Wheels

46 minutes

In this episode, we chat with Chris + Amy Leimpeter about Project Pink Wheels; a pink fire truck that is used to transport cancer patients to and from their first and last cancer treatments in California's Contra Costa County.

In 2005 Contra Costa County Fire Captain Chris Leimpeter’s wife Amy was diagnosed with breast cancer. Chris felt an outpouring of love from his community and wanted to give back in some way to those who are diagnosed with cancer. So In October 2020 Contra Costa County Fire along with support from Local 1230 launched a vehicle of hope to help cancer patients in our community. The bright pink fire truck is used to transport patients to their first and last cancer treatment within the county.
