Over $600,000 for small rural department
I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help over the years. Today we broke a milestone with grant awards since 2006 in excess of $600,000. We are a small department in a rural community.
Just received an email from FEMA: we will be starting a senior/functional needs Knox Box program here.
This has been a great week here in Edinburg as this is the second grant awarded this week! CSX Transportation awarded us $10,000 for communications upgrades earlier this week. This brings our YTD total to $116,304 and it is only August!
In 2005 the department was awarded $215,000 to replace a tender, so we are well on our way to that million dollar club. Kurt, we could not have done it without you!!
