Why the fund
drive?
The Lincoln Park First Aid Squad once a year asks for
donations from the public. Because the Squad has NEVER billed a patient for its
services, this fund drive is important for its survival.
Why
should I donate?
The Squad is a volunteer organization with more
than 30 members who devote countless hours to make sure the Lincoln Park
residents are safe. The Squad has carried a tradition of unselfish devotion to
Lincoln Park residents since 1965. When making a donation to this life saving
organization you can be sure that it goes to a good cause.
How
much does it cost to run a volunteer squad?
The easiest way for us
to calculate the cost is to budget our moneys. If you were to take our total
budget and divide it by the number of calls, the average emergency cost the
Squad $110.00 per call.
What are some of the most costly
bills?
The Squads supplies & equipment are by far the most
expensive bill per year. We also have to budget our funds for the future to
purchase vehicles. An average ambulance will cost the Squad over $100,00.00 and
will last more then ten years.
How do I donate?
A mailer
should have come to your house. Please return your tax deductible donation in
the enclosed envelope. If you did not get a mailer, just contact us. We would
very much appreciate a donation anyway, by enclosing your name and address with
a check. Please mail it to Lincoln Park First Aid Squad , PO Box 332, Lincoln
Park, NJ 07035-0332.
I have a question?
Then please
call us at 694-3304, or contact the webmaster at the bottom of this web
page, we would be happy to answer your Fund Drive question.
On
behalf of the entire Squad, thank you for your support!!!!!
