MONROE COUNTY, Pa. — The Coolbaugh Township Volunteer Fire Company hosted a fundraiser over the weekend.
Normally, the company asks for donations through the mail, but they didn't want to do that this year because so many are going through tough times themselves.
Two trailers were worth of items were donated by Walmart to help out fire officials.
"We said we'd skip a year, and we'll just make do with what we have," said Tomas Keane, Coolbaugh Twp. Volunteer Fire Co. Assistant Chief. "Then, this just landed in our lap, so it was just a gift that just arrived to us."
The fundraiser featured raffles and other products for sale, such as accessories, toiletries, and baby clothes.
The donations will all go towards a new firehouse.
