Our department is very interested to your excess gears. We are fortunate that we have a member, an American firefighter/paramedic Jason McDonald who's folks back home in Hudson, Florida is willing to pay for the rest of shipping box going to the Philippines. We are willing to pay for the costs of shipping from your location to Hudson, Florida. And also provide you a receipt of donations. We are looking forward to hear from you soon. The gears that you will donate will surely protect and keep our firefighters safe to help us get the job done. Thank you and God Bless!
