WHY LOCAL BUSINESS ARE NEEDED
- As Lewes continues to grow, emergency call volume and operational costs are increasing faster than traditional funding sources can support.
- Last year alone, nearly 8,000 emergency calls were answered.
- This year’s funding gap is projected at $500,000.
- Your sponsorship helps ensure our first responders have the equipment, training, and resources needed to protect lives, homes, and businesses.
