THE CITY REBORN FROM THE ASHES OF AMERICA'S MOST DISASTROUS FOREST FIRE
Pound Fire Dept. Receives Grant
Issue Date: June 16, 2022
The Pound Fire Department received a grant, in the amount of $5,140, from the M & M Area Community Foundation's Emergency Service Providers Fund. The funds will be used to purchase 23 fire helmets which will provide greater protection for the firefighters.
"The new helmets will ensure that each member of the Pound Fire Department would be properly protected when called upon to provide public safety services. With the high cost of fire equipment, it would be difficult for us to purchase these items without the M&M Foundation Grant. The grant is greatly appreciated," said Fire Chief Turner Gross.
