Your 50/50 ticket purchases have made important acquisitions for NES possible.

NFRA has purchased several battery powered tools for NES that are now onboard pumpers P108 and P104. The tools will be used for cutting, breaking, grinding, clearing debris and also there are lights to help work in the dark. The funding for this purchase, $2,335.71, came from our lottery proceeds.

Portable hose drying and storage racks, training mannequin upgrades and additional medical kits and AEDs are next on the wish list. With your support we can do this!

You make all of this possible. Thank you.


Congratulations!
