FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 7/15/13 - CINN FIRE DEPT TO RECEIVE PET LIFESAVING EQUIPMENT  

July 15, 2013
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Cinnaminson, NJ

Pet Care Provider I’ve Got the ‘Scoop’!, LLC, presents a FIDO BAG© to the Cinnaminson FDLori Genstein, owner and principal pet care provider of I've Got the 'Scoop'!, LLC, in Palmyra, NJ, has been campaigning to outfit New Jersey Fire Departments with FIDO BAGS©.

FIDO BAGS© are developed by the fetch Foundation, for use by first responders in the event of a fire or disaster, and contain lifesaving equipment specifically designed for pets; namely, pet oxygen masks.

Having already donated FIDO BAGS© to the Palmyra and Pennsauken Fire Departments, Lori will be presenting one of these pet lifesaving bags to theCinnaminson Fire Department, located at 1725 Cinnaminson Avenue, on Monday, July 15, at 7:00 PM.

Through fundraising efforts at community events and generous client donations, I've Got the 'Scoop'!, LLC, raised money for a total of nine FIDO BAGS©. The remaining FIDO BAGS© are earmarked to be presented to fire departments in Riverton, Mount Laurel, and Moorestown.

"I'm very excited to be a part of this fundraising endeavor!!! With today's economy and fiscal challenges, it's highly unlikely FIDO BAGS© would appear in any township's budget. Knowing my efforts shall afford a beloved pet's life to be saved deems this crusade a necessity. My objective is to set a pet-safety precedence in New Jersey, helping townships raise funds for FIDO BAGS© in their community. Spreading awareness and recruiting volunteers are essential in continuing efforts to reach my goal of EVERY fire station having this lifesaving equipment on their trucks. No one should ever have to lose a pet in a fire.” – Lori
