The Greater Erie Board of Realtors presented a check of $32,000 to three local fire departments: Fuller Hose Company, Crescent Hose Company and Greenfield Township Volunteer Fire Department.<\/p>\n
The funds were raised during the 2025 Bingo Plus Event at Perry Hi-Way Hose Company in September 2025. The money donated will go towards enhancements to be made at the Home for Fire\/Rescue Training Live Fire Training Facility in North East Township.<\/p>\n
Chris Skrekla, Captain at the Fuller Hose Company, said \u201cWe are fabric of the community. We\u2019re there in your time of need. If you live near a fire station, every fire station is looking for a little bit of help.\u201d<\/p>\n
Skrekla continued, \u201cThat help can come in, you know, coming in and volunteering. It can mean helping during the fundraisers. If you\u2019re in an organization looking for a beneficiary, the Volunteer Fire Department is always willing to partner, and the great thing is we know how to fundraise.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jennifer Funk with the Greater Erie Board of Realtors stated, \u201cThe Greater Erie Board of Realtors is all about giving back and trying to be part of the community, and that\u2019s what we did this time, and we\u2019re excited to do so.\u201d<\/p>\n
This year\u2019s check is the largest the organization has given to a 501c3 during the eight years they have donated to different nonprofits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Greater Erie Board of Realtors presented a check of $32,000 to three local fire departments: Fuller Hose…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":38234,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[23380,15868,136,138,137,23379,23377,23381,23378],"class_list":["post-38233","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-erie","tag-crescent-hose-company","tag-donation","tag-erie","tag-erie-headlines","tag-erie-news","tag-fuller-hose-company","tag-greater-erie-board-of-realtors","tag-greenfield-township-volunteer-fire-department","tag-local-fire-departments"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38233"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38233\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/38234"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=38233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=38233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
