Importance of EMT Grants

EMT grants are important in general, because they help emergency medical services providers purchase equipment, protective gear, emergency vehicles, training and more. All things necessary in assisting and protecting emergency personnel. With our EMT grants, we aim to cover most if not all of the education and training for prospective employees. By doling out these grants, we allow towns, cities, schools, and other entities to prepare for emergencies by supporting training and equipment that eases preparedness and/or pays the salaries of emergency works.

EMT grants are vital in sustaining these necessary community services. So when you donate, you are ensuring the community is ably protected. Access to emergency medical services is a lifesaving operation and without proper EMT training, lives in the community can be lost. At Remembering Brian Kanterman, we are proud to be able to help those in the community and allow for a way for many to get the training they want. Brian loved being a public servant and that is why it is our mission to honor his memory by setting up this foundation.

So if you are looking for an opportunity to win this grant, please reach out to us about eligibility. We will get back to you with all of the necessary details regarding this grant.
