Suisun City of Fire Department

Yes, and this last holiday season they were able to grant a young lady with a violin. A brand new violin! Of course I’m sure they had a lot of help but still, it’s great to know that people are giving musical instruments over game consoles.

Why, do you ask, are you Unilocaling a fire department, when you don’t even live, or work in the town.
Lemme tell you. I work for a moving company. We have over 35 drivers who have trucks all over the country. And for the past nine years, the drivers donate money annually towards a local non profit during the Holiday Season. Even during these difficult economic times, they dig deep into their pockets because they know that there are those that are less fortunate. They also know that the owner of our company, matches their donation. So for the past two years, we’ve been able to «gift» the Suisun City Fire Department with a 4 figure gift.
We then get a shopping list from Joyce and the wonder folks at Code Three Fire & Safety in Suisun who coordinate the whole deal.
The very best part? Following the brigade of firetrucks manned by those awesome firemen and the Big United Van Lines Truck and going out to Travis AFB to hand out gifts.
I can honestly say that this is one of the most rewarding days of my life. To see the tears of joy and appreciation on the faces of the children and families as they see their wishes granted is something that everyone should get a chance to experience. I know alot of people aren’t aware of the number of military families who live below the poverty level and are doing the best they can to make ends meet.
So, hats off to the men and women of Suisun City Fire Department, the Fire Cadets/​Volunteers, the great folks at Code Three Fire & Safety in Suisun, the Drivers at Chipman Relocation’s and all the other businesses who get together and make this all possible.
