CCSO Receives Generous Donation for K-9 Program

CCSO Receives Generous Donation for K-9 Program

It is not often we get surprised, however a few days ago we received a phone call that surprised us. The caller was Miss Margie, a kindhearted and generous soul who as it turns out is a big supporter of K-9 programs and the difference they make in communities. During the conversation Miss Margie advised us that she wished to donate $20,000 to our K-9 program. 

On Wednesday, December 18, K-9 handler Noel Ugalde and K-9 Tokos along with the administration of the Sheriffโ€™s Office met with Miss Margie who graciously presented us with a check in the amount of $20,000 for our K-9 program. 

Miss Margie, we are extremely grateful for the generosity and compassion shown to us through this most gracious gift. Thank you is hardly enough to say for we are blessed by your kind and generous spirit and the people of Churchill County are in your debt as we will utilize these funds to assist with and enhance our narcotics detection and suppression efforts.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
