Dear Editor:
For the past 41 years, Jones County Department of Fire Rescue / EMA has sponsored an Annual Photo Fund Raising Program to help purchase equipment for our Fire Department and EMA. In 2020, our said fund had to be put on hold due to COVID-19. Effective May 16, 2022, representatives will be visiting our neighborhoods going from door to door asking to support our Annual Program. All of the representatives are bonded, licensed, and registered through the office of Georgia Secretary of State. The representatives are also required to render an extensive background check and submit a personal photo I.D. including make, year, color, and license plate number of each vehicle that the representatives will be driving. Also, each of the representatives going from door to door will have to surrender all of the said information to the Jones County Sheriff’s Office and Gray Police Department prior to entering our neighborhoods.
This fundraiser has been extremely helpful for many years by purchasing rescue tools, extrication equipment, personal protective gear, training equipment, and much more. For every donation submitted, a 10 x 13 family portrait will be given free of charge as a way of saying thank you. All donations are tax deductible. On behalf of the Jones County Department of Fire Rescue / EMA, I want to express my sincere appreciation for your past, current, and future support. Please call the Jones County EMA Office at 478-986-6672 for any information needed. Thank you very much. Proudly serving you,
Proudly serving you, Don Graham Jones County Fire Chief / EMA Director
