KERRY, KENNEDY, NEAL ANNOUNCE UXBRIDGE FIRE DEPARTMENT TO RECEIVE $209,000 IN FEDERAL FUNDING
BOSTON – Senators John Kerry and Edward Kennedy, and Congressman Richard Neal today announced that the Uxbridge Fire Department would receive $209,000 in federal funding under the Department of Homeland Security’s Assistance to Firefighters Grant program. The grant will allow the Department to acquire new fire trucks. “Last year’s devastating mill fire reminded all of us of the bravery and heroism of the men and women of the Uxbridge Fire Department. This funding will help the department to build up its emergency response capabilities. We all salute these courageous men and women for their dedication and their service,” said Senator John Kerry. Kennedy spokeswoman Melissa Wagoner said, "The men and women of the Uxbridge Fire Department deserve the best in equipment, and this federal funding will help in the job they do so well." “The Uxbridge Fire Department is a team of trained professionals who are deeply committed to the public safety of their community. This federal grant will provide the firefighters resources they need to continue to do their important work,” said Congressman Richard E. Neal. ###
