Donations Pouring in For Brant County Paramedics

The County of Brant is thanking the community for their generous donations to the Paramedic Services.

BRANT COUNTY - The County of Brant is thanking the community for their generous donations to the Paramedic Services.

Mayor David Bailey says they are amazed at how many donations have come in. 

“I am so proud of this community. So many people have shown their love and concern for others during this time. We are a strong community and we are taking care of each other.

As the COVID-19 health emergency continued to evolve, Paramedics put out a call to the community for donations of personal protective equipment. Chief of Paramedic Services for the Brant Brantford Paramedic Services Russell King says the community has been beyond generous. 

“When we asked for help, over 40 people and businesses responded. We received much needed masks, gloves and gowns. In addition, restaurants stopped by and brought us meals. We sincerely thank you for helping us.”

There are many things you can do to help the community. One simple but important thing is to stay home and if you must go out, practice physical distancing. This helps everyone stay healthy and protects the frontline healthcare staff and other essential service workers. You can also make a donation to the food bank and call someone who may be lonely to lift their spirits.
