Brotherhood

jgordon — Mon, 01 Dec 2014 02:07:18 +0000

Let’s face it, the job of a first responder is not easy. You are not likely to find an incentive bonus for making a save and simply reporting to work is just not enough. You are expected to know everything and do it within seconds simply because a life may depend on it. You are told to never stop learning and always be a student of the job. Every year we lose first responders to untimely death, retirement, and in some situations they just walk away. Many of those lost are the leaders that take with them the knowledge that you or I may never have the fortunate ability to learn. Our superior officers have seen more and experienced things that we may never have the opportunity or want to experience. What should never be lost is that when one of our own is struggling and in need of assistance we stand together and fix the problem. The brotherhood has no flaws when it comes to supporting our own. Always remember that you have the ability to pass something on to a brother or sister that may not have your knowledge and experience. Always take the extra step to pay it forward. You may be in a position of need someday and should never be the one who turns your back. Who cares what you think of a brother and sister first responder as a person, does that matter? The only thing that matters is they have your back and you have theirs. If you don’t understand that then it may be time to find a new profession.

Today our brothers from the Keystone Coyotes Hockey Team and the Atlantic City Guns and Hoses Hockey Team stood side by side to help a brother in need. Not because it was required, but because they wanted to. Plain and simple. Get it?

David Boreanaz Supports All Hands Working

Please Join David Boreanaz in his support of first responders through the All Hands Working Charity.

The All Hands Working Charity is holding a fundraiser to support the Philadelphia Fire Department on November 4th, 2014. This event will fund a grant that will provide firefighters with the fitness equipment they need to stay healthy and prevent injury. Line of Duty Deaths are overwhelmingly linked to events that involve firefighters suffering cardiac related incidents. As an organization All Hands Working is fortunate to have the support of professional athletes and celebrities alike. The overall mission remains the same and that is to provide grants and knowledge that will benefit the overall health of the first responder.

The event on November 4th will be held at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia and features unique opportunities for fans of hockey to support first responders. Luke and Brayden Schenn of the Philadelphia Flyers have been supporting All Hands Working for a very personal reason. Their father Jeff is a firefighter back home in Canada so the opportunity to support a charity that supports first responders is a natural fit.
