Helping Our Own-Can we do something?

Has anybody in Westchester participated in this program?:

I know there are alot of fortunate deparatments in Westchester, and I think alot of times when equipment is replaced, the old stuff is just stowed in a back room till it gets crusty or is thrown away.

My question would be if anybody would be interested in teaming up to try and gather some old but usable equipment from WC FD's to donate to some needy US deparments that could really benefit from stuff that no longer serves our needs? Or is my FD the only "packrat" dept?

I know I'm throwing alot of ideas around in this forum, but it would be great if we could gather up some stuff and a couple of us could get together and deliver it on behalf of ALL FF's in Westchester....

Let me know if anybody would be willing to help out with this endeavor.

I have seen this advertised before and have always been interested in helping out. I will try and talk to my chiefs in the near future and see if we have anything lying around that we don't need, but another dept. could use. I will contact you as soon as i get an answer!
