Laurel Child Makes Donation to Emergency Medical Service - Laurel Fire Dept.
Tuesday, November 11, 2008

Recently Laurel Fire Department Emergency Medical Services noticed its supply of stuffed animals, that are given to pediatric patients when they are being transported, was running low. About a year ago, seven year old Erin Wedding, of Laurel, began a project at her church, Christ United Methodist Church. She began collecting stuffed animals and donating them to worthy causes. She was contacted by the Fire Department and she wanted to help. On November 6th she came to the Station with her mother, Lisa Wedding, and presented the E.M.S. Service with 65 stuffed animals she had collected. The Fire Department and her church are certainly very proud of Erin for her unselfish donation and work for the community.
