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!!!!! |
