Summary
Fire Rescue representatives presented a $9,100 donation raised at the department's May brat fry; presenters said the event has raised roughly $40,000$45,000 since at least 2015.
Representatives of Fond du Lac Fire Rescue presented a $9,100 check to the American Red Cross at the city council meeting on May 28, the department said following an annual May brat fry fundraiser.
A Fire Rescue presenter told the council, "So on May 2 this last this year, we had our annual brat fry for the Red Cross. We were able to don't donate to them $9,100. I just wanna say thank you to everybody for your support." A second speaker noted the Red Cross responds when local residents are displaced by fire and thanked volunteers and city staff who supported the fundraiser.
Council members and presenters said department records they could find go back to 2015 and showed about $40,000 to $45,000 raised through the brat fry over the years. The presenters specifically thanked an organizer named Noah for arranging the event again this year and called the ongoing partnership with the Red Cross "an incredible contribution to help us save lives." No formal council action was required; this item was a special presentation.
