History:
The Queens Village-Hollis-Bellerose Volunteer Ambulance Corps was founded in June, 1972 due to an obvious need of a community oriented ambulance service after a female child got hit by a car and residents of the community waited 45 minutes for an ambulance.
Queens Village Hollis Bellerose Vac has been providing emergency care to the community since 1972.
