Donation to Mississauga Fire and Emergency Services Helps Advance Public Safety

City services | December 2, 2019

Mississauga Fire and Emergency Services (MFES) are the proud recipients of 726 Kidde Canada 10-year, worry-free combination alarms valued at over $43,500. The donation comes as part of Project Zero – a public education campaign funded by Enbridge Gas Inc. that provides select fire departments with combination smoke/carbon monoxide alarms in support of reaching high-risk residents in their communities.

The campaign helps improve fire safety in homes while helping to lower fire and carbon monoxide-related deaths – the program goal is to help reduce deaths to zero. MFES will distribute the combination alarms to Peel Children’s Aid. The official presentation to MFES will take place at Fire Station 101 on Monday, December 9, 2019.
