The Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation has donated thousands of dollars worth of equipment to the Dublin Fire Department.
10 sets of bunker gear and 10 helmets worth nearly $19,000 has been given to the Dublin Fire Department. The donated gear will act as a personal protectant which is expected to improve the safety of the response team during operations.
The Foundation has donated more than $5.7 million to first responders and public safety entities across the nation, including more than $580,800 in Georgia.
Each restaurant recycles leftover, five-gallon pickle buckets and sells them to guests for $2. Donation canisters on register counters explain the non-profit’s mission and collect spare change, while the Round Up Program allows guests to “round up” their bill to the nearest dollar. All funds raised benefit the Foundation.
