Move helps FWB stay true to its mission

A retired rescue truck from Kingston Fire & Rescue is now helping Indigenous communities across Canada. The 1994 vehicle was donated this week to Firefighters Without Borders (FWB) Canada, a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing fire safety and training in remote areas.

This donation will support FWB’s mission to protect life, property, and the environment by providing fire safety resources and education. Kingston Fire & Rescue expressed pride in contributing to a safer, more inclusive Canada through this meaningful step.

FWB, based here in Ontario, is committed to offering training and equipment donations to communities in Canada and worldwide. Through their efforts, they strive to improve fire safety and support local first responders. The donation of this truck marks a significant milestone in their mission to bring essential resources to underserved areas.

This collaboration underscores the power of community partnerships in promoting safety and preparedness.
