South River Electric Membership Corporation (EMC) presented a check for $9,030 to the Cumberland County Fire Chiefs Association to support Emergency Services and its fire prevention education initiatives.
South River EMC Vice President of Member Services and Public Relations Catherine O’Dell made the donation to Fire Chiefs Association President Freddy Johnson, Sr., at the Cumberland County Emergency Operations Center Sept. 23. The grant is part of South River EMC’s Operation Round Up program.
“We are incredibly grateful for the generous grant provided to the Cumberland County Fire Chiefs Association’s Fire & Life Safety Committee,” said Johnson in a press release. “This support allows us to provide essential fire safety materials to elementary school students, particularly those in grades K-2, focusing on home fire safety. We thank South River EMC for helping us educate and protect the future of our community.”
"South River EMC’s generous contribution to the Fire Chiefs Association not only enhances our ability to educate young students about fire safety but also strengthens our commitment to protecting the lives of our community members” said Cumberland County Fire Marshal Kevin Lowther in a press release. “Together, we are building a safer future for Cumberland County."
About the grant: The Fire & Life Safety Committee of the Cumberland County Fire Chiefs Association is dedicated to enhancing fire and life safety education across all Cumberland County departments. The committee organizes multiple public educational events throughout the year. Funding for age-appropriate materials has been a challenge, but with the support of South River EMC’s Operation Round Up Program, these events can continue to make a meaningful impact.
