MIDWEST FIRE EQUIPMENT & REPAIR COMPANY (Midwest Fire) recently announced that the company’s CEO and president, Sarah Atchison, was a finalist along with two other companies for the Executive of the Year Award at the Minnesota Business Manufacturing Awards.

The award recognizes an individual who has made major accomplishments in Minnesota’s manufacturing industry in the past few years. The awards event celebrating the finalists was held in Minneapolis. Winners and finalists will be honored in an upcoming feature story of an all-manufacturing issue of Minnesota Business.

SAFETY COMPONENTS INTERNATIONAL, a subsidiary of International Textile Group, recently hosted its 15th anniversary Charity Golf Tournament. This year’s event raised in excess of $25,000, which will be donated to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation. Following the events of September 11, 2001, the company set up the Safety Components First Responder 911 Foundation for the purpose of raising funds to support the firefighter community and other first responders throughout the country. The Safety Component First Responder 911 Foundation sponsors two fundraising events each year and has raised more than $800,000 over the past 15 years. These events include a concert, called Stop, Drop, Rock ‘n’ Roll, held as part of FDIC International, and the annual Charity GOLF Event. In addition to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, funds have been donated to the Wounded Warrior Project and Southeastern Firefighters Burn Center.

GLOBE, DUPONT PROTECTION SOLUTIONS (DuPont), and the NATIONAL VOLUNTEER FIRE COUNCIL (NVFC) have announced the Brindle Ridge Fire Department, Mount Vernon, Kentucky, and the Eastern Douglas County Fire Department, Drury, Missouri, will each be outfitted with four sets of new Globe turnout gear as part of the 2016 Globe Gear Giveaway. The Brindle Ridge Fire Department (BRFD) attempts to replace old turnout gear on a yearly basis, but with 38 members on the roster and only eight sets of gear that are NFPA-compliant, the department has a large number of members who do not have the gear required to fight fires. This gear donation will provide BRFD members desperately needed protective equipment, enabling them to better protect their community.

The Eastern Douglas County Volunteer Fire Department (EDCVFD) has 24 volunteers who have only 14 sets of gear among them, all of which are more than 10 years old.
