Grants for the Rogers Fire Dept.

Introduction Project Goal:Project Statement:  Our goal is to use grants to obtain as much money and supplies as we can for the Rogers Fire Dept. Specifically, we are trying to attain an exhaust ventilation system.  The Fire Dept. safeguards the public. We want to help them as much as we can and make their jobs safer as they risk their lives for the public’s wellbeing.

Specific Project Ambitions Our group would like to achieve two things for the Rogers Fire Dept: -A MagneGrip Sliding Balancer Track (SBT) System -GPS devices or progams for the fire trucks

Benefits and Importance  If we can get GPS systems for the trucks, the firefighters will be quicker to fires, thus limiting fire damage and saving lives.  If we are able to acquire the exhaust system, the system would prevent dangerous pollutants from entering the stations.

Methods  Visiting the fire dept. for their most essential needs  Teamwork  Research online  Exploring Grants  Applying for Grants

History  We were approached by fire department to search out grants that would benefit the fireman, the department, and the public.  We have begun our research and have found several good leads.
