The Bridgeton Fire Dept. is receiving the money, which was announced Wednesday by U.S. Representative Frank LoBiondo. The money will help recruit, train and retain the firefighters, and keep them safer while performing their everyday dangerous duties.

Officials at the department say they are ecstatic about the grant.

The SAFER program awards approximately $420 million in competitive grants to local fire departments, specifically for the recruitment and retention of volunteer and professional firefighters.
