We are grateful for the financial support and unwavering encouragement that Stafford EMS supporters have provided to our organization.

We appreciate the ongoing backing of our Mayor, Administrator, Council Members, Police, Fire, and Public Works Departments, which enables us to carry out our duties effectively.

Our deepest gratitude, however, goes to our members and their families, who demonstrate remarkable dedication and compassion in their daily response to emergency situations. During the most difficult moments of someone's life, these exceptional medical professionals provide vital care and support.
