MCKINNEY (WBAP/KLIF) – Collin County Fire Departments are donating equipment to Ukraine.
According to the McKinney Fire Department, in early April, local resident Sergii Nozhka reached out to McKinney Mayor George Fuller and said his cousin was serving as a firefighter in Ukraine and needed equipment. The city pulled together a shipment of helmets with contributions from the McKinney, Lavon, Weston, and Princeton Fire Departments.
“The fire service goes beyond politics and borders. It is a family, and we are honored to have been able to help the firefighters in Ukraine as they struggle to do their jobs,” said McKinney Fire Chief Danny Kistner.
This week, Nozhka posted on Facebook that the supplies made it overseas.
