The San Pierre Volunteer Fire Department is the recipient of a Hardesty Memorial Endowment Fund grant through the Starke County Community Foundation.
The $24,470 grant will be used to purchase and install a new firehouse siren in Railroad Township. According to information released from the Starke County Community Foundation, the department’s siren does not always work, causing a public safety issue. The siren alerts residents of dangerous weather and alerts firefighters of emergencies.
Officials from the Starke County Community Foundation are proud to support the San Pierre Volunteer Fire Department and its 60 years of service to the community.
The Starke County Community Foundation continues to make a positive impact in the community. For more information, visit www.nicf.org.
