Some great news recently for our local fire department as it was announced late last week, that Strathroy-Caradoc Fire Department received a grant from Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation of Canada for $23,744.77 to purchase Technical Rescue Equipment. Chief Brent Smith says “We are so grateful to be given the tools needed to continue to keep the citizens of Strathroy Caradoc safe and protected.”
The Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation of Canada has awarded 306 grants to public safety organizations since 2015, with this grant being one of 22 total this year that will provide critical lifesaving equipment valued at more than $518,000 across Ontario.
