Firehouse Subs awards grant to WPFD
Firehouse Subs Resturants in Central Arkansas (Owners Tim Cobb and Steve Armstrong) and the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation awarded West Pulaski Fire Department a grant to purchase 40 complete sets of Wildland Protective Fire Clothing. Used for protection of our fire fighters when battling grass, sickness brush, and forest fires, this gear will keep our folks protected from burns in wildland fire conditions. The grant consisted of the purchase of pants, shirts, helmets, gloves, goggles and boots that are all fire resistant. The investment that the local Firehouse Subs resturants and national Firehouse Subs Foundation shows the dedication to serve our local department and firefighters while helping ensure we all get back home safely! Thanks Firehouse Subs! We love our new gear as much as we love your sandwiches!
