Chief's Corner: Police Chief Melanie Bevin, BPD

Posted
BRADENTO –Through our partnership with the Manatee Community Foundation and the generosity of donors, we are pleased to announce that our Department is the recipient of two grants dedicated to the purchase of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs).

Thank you to the Nick and Mary Lou Gigliotti Foundation for their $3,600 grant, and the Bishop-Parker Foundations Fund for their $9,400 grant. These funds will allow our Department to purchase ten AEDs to be deployed by our patrol officers, which will afford us the ability to begin lifesaving efforts prior to the arrival of paramedics.

When seconds matter, these substantial grants may very well save lives and we cannot thank you enough.
