The Pella Fire Department is raising funds for the annual Fight for Air Climb this evening at the Pella Pizza Ranch.

Last year, Pella Fire was the number one fundraising department in the state, and aim to do so again in part through bussing tables and delivering pizzas from 5 to 8 p.m.

Pella Fire Chief Doug Van Gorkom says donations to their teams will be taken as part of the event, which all proceeds directly benefiting the American Lung Association.

Firefighters will check smoke detectors and replace batteries if needed when going out on food deliveries as well.
