The Bark River Fire Department would like to extend a very heartfelt THANK YOU to two wonderful organizations, the Sackerson Foundation and the Ben Lauren Foundation, for their incredible generosity and support.
Thanks to these two foundations, our department was able to purchase Seek Fire-Pro 300 thermal imaging cameras—valuable tools that will help our firefighters do our jobs more safely and effectively while continuing our commitment to protecting the Bark River community.
Both the Sackerson Foundation and the Ben Lauren Foundation have shown tremendous generosity in supporting the effort to keep our communities safe. We are truly grateful for their investment in our department and in the safety of the people we serve.
We also encourage everyone to take a few minutes to watch this heartfelt tribute to Ben Lauren, and to learn more about his story and how and why the Ben Lauren Foundation came to be.
It is a beautiful reminder of how one person's life and legacy can continue to make a difference in the lives of others.
Thank you to the Sackerson Foundation and the Ben Lauren Foundation for helping us better serve and protect our community. Your generosity truly makes a difference. ❤️
