Bachmann Presents Clearwater Fire Department with $52,326 Firefighters Grant
Clearwater, Minnesota, Sep 12 -Congresswoman Michele Bachmann was in Clearwater Wednesday to present the Clearwater Fire Department with a grant for $52,326. Recipients of the Grant included Fire Chief Doug Nieters, Assistant Fire Chief Doug Zupan, Fire Marshal Brian Kunkel and Clearwater Mayor Lee Monk.
“It is an honor to be in Clearwater to present this Assistance to Firefighters Grant to the entire Clearwater Fire Department,” said Bachmann during the presentation. “The first responders of the Clearwater Fire Department put their lives on the line each and everyday. This grant will help protect the volunteers of the Fire Department and the residents of the Clearwater area when they need it most."The purpose of the Assistance to Firefighters Grant is to give financial support directly to local fire departments to improve our first responder’s ability to protect the health and safety of the public, as well as that of first-responder personnel. The Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program is designed as an opportunity for Congress to work with the Homeland Security Department to enhance basic fire service delivery across the United States.
