Plano man rallies Collin County fire departments to donate firefighting equipment to firefighters in Ukraine
Updated 6 hours ago
This week, a Ukrainian fire department received a generous donation all thanks to the help of one Plano man and several Collin County fire departments. In early April, Sergii Nozhka, a Plano resident and Ukraine native, reached out to Mayor George Fuller of McKinney to share his cousin's experience as a firefighter during the Ukraine-Russian war.
According to Nozhka's plea, the fire department needed a number of supplies as they continued to serve the Ukrainian community. After receiving his message, the city quickly pulled together the requested equipment with donations from the McKinney, Lavon, Weston, and Princeton fire departments.Download NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
