CALDWELL COUNTY, N.C. — The Caldwell County Sheriff’s Office recently supplied individual first aid kits to every classroom in its school district.
A total of 1,172 kits were given to the Caldwell County School System.
They contain tools to treat the emergency needs of an individual and contain life-saving tools should the need for such tools arise.
The sheriff’s office said the kits are part of a partnership for the “Minutes Matter” project and were made possible by Safeguard Medical Company, a veteran-driven, North Carolina-based company located in Huntersville.
To fund the project, Caldwell County received donations from Duke Energy, the Broyhill Foundation, Bernhardt Furniture, and an anonymous donor.
