Cold Nose Lodge is donating four sets of pet oxygen masks to the Macungie Ambulance Corps on Monday, September 30, 2024 at 1:30pm.

Oxygen masks used in August 2024 by the Lower Macungie Fire Department to treat cats at the scene of a fire in Alburtis had been donated by Cold Nose Lodge. After learning about the donation, Jack D’Andrea, Safety Coordinator for Macungie Ambulance Corps, reached out to Cold Nose Lodge owner, Rayne Reitnauer, to inquire about providing masks for the ambulances, too.

Cold Nose Lodge reached out to clients through social media and signage in the store. They matched client contributions towards the mask purchases, which allowed them to order four sets of masks.

“Each time I hear that the masks we provided to the fire department have been used to help save lives, it makes me so proud. I am honored to have the opportunity to partner with our clients to help save even more through our donation to the Macungie Ambulance Corps,” says Rayne Reitnauer. “As a Certified Vet Tech, my mission is to take care of animals, and I am happy to provide resources that will help the Macungie Ambulance Corps do the same.”
