A south Georgia business is giving back to the community by donating items from their store to first responders. Southland Metal Roofing Supply donated a roof structure to Lowndes County Fire Rescue. It’ll help recruits and firefighters to train safely, while instructors monitor the trainings from a ground-level view. The structure helps train for scenarios firefighters may see when arriving on a scene with heavy smoke coming from a building. If there’s a need for ventilation, they will climb up. The ventilation will help improve the interior conditions and firefighters can move inside in better conditions. And it provides an opening for toxic gases to rise up and exit the structure. If there’s a victim inside, it also helps improve inside conditions for them.
