The Gates Fire District, with the help of the OFPC, was able to host an informational session last night on the NYS Volunteer Firefighter Cancer Benefit Act. As a top concern of the fire service, this act helps volunteer firefighters with the financial hardships of cancer. GFD would like to thank all that attended from around the County and the NYS Office of Fire Prevention and Control for providing the information to help us all.
