Country Financial makes Operation Helping Heroes donation to La Harpe Ambulance Service

LA HARPE, Ill. — COUNTRY Financial representative Jake Allen recently made a $1,500 donation to the La Harpe Ambulance Service to help buy ambulance equipment.

In a press release, Allen said, “The La Harpe Ambulance Service provides EMT support to the La Harpe community and surrounding areas in Hancock County. It’s operated by a dozen volunteers 24/7. They have significant needs to attract more volunteers and require equipment upgrades to continue providing these essential services to our community. I can’t think of a better way to help than by donating these funds.”

Country Financial has donated more than $5 million since 2020 to organizations and programs that support first responders, active-duty service members and veterans, supporting the company’s vision to “enrich lives in the communities we serve.”

The Operation Helping Heroes program was created in 2015 to support non-profit events and programs that benefit active-duty service members, veterans and their families. Later, the program expanded to include first responders and teachers.
