From excerpts found on FirehouseSubs.com:
In 2005, the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation was established with the goal of equipping emergency personnel and public safety organizations with life-saving tools and educational opportunities. Many first responders rely on outdated equipment and often lack access to essential resources. Since its inception, the foundation has donated a staggering $13 million across 43 states and Puerto Rico, significantly aiding over 1,000 public safety agencies nationwide. In Illinois alone, more than $417,000 has been distributed since 2012, ensuring that critical tools which might not have been accessible before are now available.
On May 19, 2015, Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation continued its commitment to supporting local heroes by presenting $190,000 worth of equipment to nine public safety organizations in Chicago. The event took place at the Robert J. Quinn Fire Academy, marking another milestone in their mission to enhance community safety.
The departments that benefited from this generous donation include:
- **Chicago Fire Department**: Received two off-road ambulance vehicles valued at over $55,800.
- **Chicago Police Department 17th District**: Acquired two automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) totaling more than $2,000.
- **Chicago Police Memorial Foundation**: Was gifted 41 bulletproof vests worth over $20,000.
- **Mokena Fire Protection District**: Obtained an all-terrain vehicle worth over $16,700.
- **Waukegan Fire Protection District**: Gained eight sets of firefighting turnout gear valued at over $19,600.
- **Lemont Fire Protection District**: Secured an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) worth more than $19,800.
- **Frankfort Fire Protection District**: Received an ATV valued at over $14,600.
- **Tri-State Fire Protection District**: Was provided with a water rescue boat costing over $19,900.
- **Mount Prospect Fire Department**: Received 27 AEDs worth more than $21,000.
These contributions wouldn’t have been possible without the continuous support of Firehouse Subs’ dedicated team and generous customers. Fundraising initiatives like recycling leftover pickle buckets, placing donation cans at registers, and the "Round Up" program—where patrons can round up their bills to the nearest dollar—are just some of the ways people contribute to this cause. Every penny raised helps ensure that those who protect us receive the best possible resources.
Thanks so much, Jay!
