(FORT BEND COUNTY) - The Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office recently received a donation of 46 individual first aid kits from the newly formed Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Foundation. The kits, totaling $9,300, enable 100 percent of patrol deputies to have the necessary kits when patrolling Fort Bend communities.
Known as IFAKs, the kits contain basic medical supplies to treat traumatic injuries sustained in the line of duty. These IFAKs add to a recent $24,198.89 grant awarded to the Sheriff’s Office by the Office of the Texas Governor to supply 119 IFAKs under the state Justice Assistance Grant program.
The Sheriff’s Foundation also assisted in the funding of branded marketing materials to help the Sheriff’s Office hire additional deputies and civilian personnel. These include key fobs, note pads, card holders, cellular phone stands, pens, lanyards and other materials that are given to prospective candidates during recruiting events.
