The Avon Fire Department is pleased to announce that we have been awarded two important fire safety education grants through the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
We have received a Student Awareness of Fire Education (SAFE) Grant in the amount of $3,422.98 and a Senior SAFE Grant in the amount of $1,747.50.
These funds will support critical fire and life safety education efforts in our community, allowing us to:
- Deliver age-appropriate fire safety programs to Avon’s students
- Provide seniors with education on fire prevention, cooking safety, and emergency preparedness
- Distribute life-saving safety materials and resources
- Continue proactive outreach to reduce fire-related injuries and fatalities
Programs like SAFE and Senior SAFE play a vital role in preventing fires before they happen—especially among our most vulnerable populations.
We thank the Commonwealth for its continued investment in community risk reduction and public safety.
