Dougherty presents check to Burholme EMS

PHILADELPHIA, March 27 – Today, state Rep. Sean Dougherty, D-Phila., hosted a news conference where he presented a $15,000 check to Burholme EMS.

Dougherty helped to secure the funding from the state Fire Company and Emergency Medical Services Grant program.

“The folks at Burholme EMS display selflessness, sacrifice and commitment to the betterment of our community on a daily basis,” Dougherty said. “They are more than deserving of this funding, and it is my honor to present it to them.”  

The funding will be used to support the increased need for emergency services in Northeast Philadelphia, for the Jefferson Health System, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, and surrounding communities.
