The White Ribbon Campaign is a time to join in celebrating and honoring the lifesaving teamwork of dispatchers, EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, frontline healthcare workers, and all Emergency Medical Services (EMS) professionals in the area during EMS Week.

Community members are asked to display a white ribbon outside their home or place of business. The white ribbon signifies support for EMS professionals and healthcare workers who not only continue to fight the current COVID-19 pandemic but who tirelessly sacrifice themselves daily to keep our community safe. This year we have partnered with Newman Regional Health to create White Ribbon Yard signs that be placed at your home or business. Signs are $20 and can be ordered at https://emporiamainstreet.square.site/product/white-ribbon-yard-sign/128?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=false&category_id=5

Print off your own white ribbon to hang in your window at https://emporiamainstreet.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ribbon-patern.pdf
