C O M s o u t h b r a n C h e M e r g e n C y s e r V i C e s n e e d s y o u r s u P P o r t – e s P e C i a l l y t h i s y e a r When someone in the seven communities we serve calls for help, South Branch Emergency Services always answers – we responded to more than 4,000 calls last year alone. Our volunteer-governed, shared-services organization provides urgent medical treatment, emergency rescue, and rapid and safe hospital transit to the residents of Town of Clinton, Township of Clinton, High Bridge, Lebanon Borough, and portions of Franklin Township, Bethlehem Township, and Union Township. We exist to help you, but now, we need you to help us. Keeping those we serve and ourselves safe during this pandemic has resulted in nearly $100,000 of unanticipated expenses, including about $80,000 in additional personal protective equipment during the first wave. The pandemic continues, and these costs, along with all of the usual costs to run our organization, will continue. Whatever you can donate to our once-a-year fund drive is an investment in a tradition of excellence built on the legacies of Clinton First Aid & Rescue Squad and High Bridge Emergency Squad, which merged July 1 to form South Branch Emergency Services. Please consider: • Between training and being on call for emergencies, our volunteer members donate 30,000 hours of their time each year. Even at the minimum wage, that would equal $250,000 donated! • Our average response time is less than seven minutes – well under the national standard of 8 minutes! • We are a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization. Your donation is tax deductible. You recently received a letter from us and may donate using the enclosed envelope, or you can donate online a: www.SBES365.org. Thank you!
