Watch Hill Firefighters would like to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to Ocean State Job Lot for providing another large donation of hand sanitizer and cleaning supplies.

In addition, Watch Hill firefighters and emergency medical technicians would like to take this opportunity to say thank you again to all of the businesses that have generously supported us during the COVID-19 pandemic

It is difficult to recognize all the donors but the generous and exemplary efforts of a few certainly need to be mentioned.

We are especially grateful to our friends at Ocean State Job Lot, Sons of Liberty Distillery, Grey Sail Brewery, and the University of Rhode Island for donating hundreds of gallons of hand sanitizer and disinfectant cleaners. In addition, the Narraganset Lions Club donated several boxes of personal protective equipment and US Extruders in Westerly donated several infrared thermometers and several boxes of personal protective equipment and cleaning supplies.

In addition, our friends at the Rhode Island Disaster Medical Assistance Team and Medical Reserve Corps coordinated donations of masks, gloves, and other personal protective supplies, which were quickly sorted and redistributed to the local fire and EMS departments.

Watch Hill firefighters and emergency medical technicians have been amazed by the outpouring of generosity and support.

Thank You For Your Support!
