A huge thank you to the Runnemede Chamber of Commerce for their generous $500 donation to support our summertime hydration efforts!

As temperatures continue to rise, staying hydrated is one of the most important ways to prevent heat-related illnesses before they occur. This donation will help ensure our firefighters have access to water and sports drinks during the hot summer months.

We’re grateful to have such a supportive organization investing in our local first responders and helping make our community stronger. Thank you for your continued partnership and support!
