Life Jacket Donations Needed

Drowning rates in Alaska are among the highest in the nation.  The BBAHC Environmental Health Department is putting the word out to Dillingham and surrounding villages that life jacket donations are needed now to stock Kids Don't Float loaner boards.  The life jackets must be Coast Guard approved and in good condition.  Donations are being accepted in Dillingham at the Environmental Health Department, Kanakanak House, 3410 Chuthmuk Road.  Surrounding villages are advised to take donations to your local life jacket loaner board.  Contact us at (907) 842-3396 for questions.  See the flyer for full details.
