Shuniah Fire & Emergency Services is getting a monetary boost to help purchase firefighting training materials.
Safe Community Project Assist is a program with the Fire Marshal’s Public Fire Safety Council and helps supplement existing training for Ontario volunteer and composite fire departments.
“Safe Community Project Assist improves access to training materials for fire departments,” said Jon Pegg, Ontario Fire Marshal and Chair of the Fire Marshal’s Public Fire Safety Council. “Firefighting can be dangerous and unpredictable, and these training materials positively contribute to the health and safety of firefighters and the broader community.”
The $250,000 donation will be shared by 50 Ontario fire departments.
