Honor the remarkable legacy of the BRAVO Volunteer Ambulance with this beautifully crafted miniature display model, created to commemorate their 50th anniversary. This unique piece pays tribute to BRAVO’s incredible service to the Bay Ridge, Fort Hamilton, and Dyker Heights communities since 1974.
Founded to address ambulance shortages in New York City, BRAVO was established by dedicated community leaders and volunteers who saw a critical need for faster emergency response. With over 100 volunteers, BRAVO answered its first call on July 4, 1974, arriving on the scene in less than five minutes. Within a month, they expanded to provide 24-hour coverage, and soon added a second ambulance to meet rising demand.
Whether you’re a former volunteer, a family member of someone who served, or simply someone who values BRAVO’s dedication to the community, this display model is a meaningful keepsake.
It also makes a thoughtful gift — perfect for those with ties to BRAVO or anyone who appreciates the spirit of volunteerism and community service. Whether for yourself or someone special, this model is a touching tribute to the heroes who dedicated their time and energy to saving lives.
Display it proudly as a reminder of BRAVO’s unwavering commitment to the community — a legacy built on courage, compassion, and selfless service.
