FARMINGTON – Franklin Savings Bank has donated 700 smoke detectors to local fire departments within its branch location communities.
The fire departments are asked to pass on the smoke detectors to people or organizations in need of a new or updated detector.
“Firefighters have told us that they frequently answer calls and find smoke detectors are not installed or not working properly. These units will be a great tool for them to use and correct such problems on the spot,” said Danielle Welch, operations and securities specialist at Franklin Savings Bank.
“Each of our branches has 100 smoke detectors to hand out to the fire departments in their local areas. We hope these smoke detectors can play a role in preventing a fire from becoming deadly by alerting people to it early,” she said.
So nice to see business and groups helping out, especially at this time of year. Also Otis credit union and Bangor savings bank…..etc.
Thank you, Franklin Savings Bank. You continue to give to our community. You are truly our “hometown bank.” Also thank you to all the fire department firefighters…you are the best!!
