Boots vs.Badges

The City of Westland recently hosted an American Red Cross Blood Drive during which officials hoped to collect 24 units of desperately needed blood donations. Currently, according to officials, there is a severe blood crisis in the state and across the country due to the COVID pandemic and multiple weather disasters. The annual Boots vs. Badges competition in Westland resulted in the collection of 32 units of blood which will help 96 patients in need. This year, Westland Fire and Rescue personnel put the flame out on the Westland Police Department 2-year hot streak of recruiting the most donors. Representatives of each department were on hand recently to accept the thanks of the community.
