GATHERING MONEY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE WATER TANK TRUCK

During the huge fire which broke out on the 26^th of August in two northern parts of Andros from lightning the active fire fighter volunteers {SEDA} participated in the extinguishment of the fire from the beginning. 32 volunteers of SEDA with 9 firetrucks took part in extinguishing the fire at the climax. Unfortunately at some point the water tank truck of SEDA {SEDA 6} got trapped because of  ”the chimney  phenomenon” which resulted in the total destruction of this truck. Fortunately the driver of the truck managed to escape with the assistance of another fire truck which was following it.

In forest fires the major role is played by the adequacy of water which can be transported by the trucks with big water tank. Therefore the lack of such a vehicle significantly reduces the effectiveness of the fire fighters. For this reason we request financial aid from anyone available in order to achieve our goal, the replacement of the water tank truck.
