Oregon Coast Emergency Repeater Inc is incredibly thankful for the generosity of
Western Lane Community Foundation grant award.
Their support of our organization is a testament to our efforts to provide emergency
backup communications to our Police and Fire agencies here in the greater Florence area in
the event of a disaster.
We are actively conducting monthly exercises with our Amateur Radio Emergency Service
team to be prepared in the event of such an emergency.
The resources provided through this grant will go a long way toward achieving our
outlined objectives.
Having up to date computers and operating systems is essential for our efforts within our
Western Lane community
We sincerely appreciate your trust in our vision, mission, and the initiatives we undertake
toward the emergency preparedness of our community. Your support strengthens our
resolve and motivates us to work even harder.
