Donate to help save lives

Raise awareness and help equip first responders

While the ultimate goal is for farmers and grain handlers to avoid entering grain bins altogether, the reality is that entry still occurs. That’s why it’s essential to ensure first responders are properly trained and equipped to handle grain entrapment emergencies. Through your generosity, you’re not only supporting your local fire department and community — you’re helping save lives.

Donating is easy

We’re grateful for your support of grain bin safety initiatives. Every donation—big or small—helps save lives and protect the agricultural community.*

You can sponsor a department by donating a designated grain rescue tube and providing specialized training directly to them.

To donate or become a sponsor, contact GBSWinfo@nationwide.com.
