National First Responders Day October 28, 2022

By Sharon Challenger

Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?”
– Martin Luther King, Jr.

When it comes to First Responders, we witness what they do for others, each and every day.

While we may enjoy countless undisturbed dinners with our families, they often rush out of their homes to rescue strangers who are in need of help.

While we may go to sleep safely in our homes each night, our First Responders must always be on alert. Their sleep is often interrupted by emergency calls.

Our First Responders respond daily to fires, explosions, horrific vehicle accidents, gunshots, drownings, heart attacks, and more. They are always there for us.

They save lives, they protect our communities, they work to keep us safe, and today and every day, we honor them for doing so.

Thank you for your service!
