Where does FAMSCO find donated items for shipment to Central America?
Items are donated by municipal fire departments, hospitals, clinics, and individual medical and dental practices. FAMSCO also actively procures needed vehicles such as fire trucks, ambulances and school buses. Certification guidelines or requirements for these types of vehicles may require that they be retired at a certain age or mileage. Often FAMSCO is able to purchase de-certified (yet serviceable) vehicles at very reasonable prices.
