PrideStar Trinity EMS is again sending medical supplies to war-torn Ukraine.
The company said it donated a large collection of new and gently used emergency medical supplies to the Global Disaster Relief Team for transport to Ukraine to support emergency responders, healthcare providers and humanitarian teams caring for civilians.
This is the second humanitarian initiative undertaken by PrideStar Trinity EMS. Last fall, the company donated two fully equipped ambulances through US Ambulances for Ukraine, replacing emergency vehicles destroyed during the conflict and helping ensure Ukrainian first responders could continue providing lifesaving care. Employees gathered at the company’s Lowell headquarters to help load dozens of boxes of medical supplies in advance of their journey overseas.
“This donation continues a relationship that began with our ambulance donation several years ago,” said PrideStar Trinity EMS President and CEO David Daly. “We know firsthand that reliable equipment can mean the difference between life and death. Seeing these supplies continue their mission in Ukraine is something our entire team is proud to support.”
PrideStar Trinity EMS welcomed Alexander Smirnov of the Global Disaster Relief Team to its Lowell headquarters to collect the donated supplies. Smirnov personally served on the front lines in Ukraine, delivering critical medical supplies and humanitarian aid to communities impacted by the war.
Rather than allowing valuable medical equipment and supplies to remain unused, PrideStar Trinity EMS chose to place them in the hands of an organization capable of delivering them directly to those who need them most.
Smirnov, who has witnessed firsthand the challenges facing emergency responders in Ukraine, expressed his appreciation for the donation.
“Every box of supplies we receive means another opportunity to care for someone in need. Donations from organizations like PrideStar Trinity EMS directly support the medics and volunteers working in some of the most difficult conditions imaginable. We are deeply grateful for their continued commitment to the people of Ukraine.”
The Global Disaster Relief Team provides humanitarian assistance throughout the world by delivering medical supplies, equipment and disaster relief to communities affected by war, natural disasters and other emergencies.
