Tyson Foods donates more than $23K to Emporia, Kan.
Tyson Foods Inc. presented the City of Emporia a check for $23,895 today. The money will fund the purchase of an outdoor warning and notification system that will be used to alert Emporia residents of dangerous weather or other emergencies.
The purchase will supplement the City’s existing notification system and broaden its overall reach. More than just a siren, the system is capable of broadcasting instructions or vital information in both English and Spanish. The donation will entirely pay for one new site to be added to the notification system.
