GLOBE MANUFACTURING COMPANY continued its partnership with the Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund at FDIC International 2015. With its supplier partner, 3M, Globe invited attendees to try its new G-XTREME® 3.0 turnout gear on the Globe Virtual Firefighter Athletic Circuit and committed to make a donation to the Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund in each firefighter's name. This year Globe had firefighters spin a wheel to determine the donation-$10, $20, $50, or $100. In total, Globe and 3M donated $28,080 to the Fund from the Globe Virtual Firefighter Athletic Circuit."We believe in the mission of the Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund and are delighted that we've helped them make a difference in the lives of firefighters, their families, and departments over the past year," says Rob Freese, senior vice president of marketing at Globe Manufacturing Company.

BULLEX and LION have announced three changes in their executive team. Ryan O'Donnell, co-founder and president, is transitioning into a strategy and business development role as Leon Timmermans assumes the role of division president and Craig DeVoe begins work as BullEx general manager. As a founder of BullEx and co-owner of Haagen, O'Donnell has spent the past 10 years establishing BullEx and HAAGEN as leaders in the marketplace and building a solid foundation for the business within the LION organization.

STREAMLIGHT®, INC., a provider of lighting for first responders, donated $30,000 to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF), including $20,000 in proceeds from sales of the company's specially marked NFFF Red Nano Light® and Red Vantage® helmet light.

Streamlight earmarks $1 and $3, respectively, from the sale of each light for the NFFF. The company also contributed $10,000 for renewal of its "Bronze Helmet" NFFF sponsorship. Both donations will assist the nonprofit organization in commemorating the lives of firefighters who have died in the line of duty and supporting their families and coworkers.

E-ONE recently completed a customer satisfaction survey to not only obtain voice of the customer feedback on the company's products and services but to also raise funds for the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF). "Customer feedback is integral to the goals of our organization, and surveys are one of many ways to obtain that voice of the customer. However, typically survey responses are significantly stronger when participants are incentivized, but that incentive only benefits one or a handful of participants," says Jay Johnson, vice president of sales and product management for E-ONE. "Because we wanted a strong response to our survey but also wanted an incentive that would benefit others, we decided to use the survey as an opportunity to raise money for a great organization in our industry, the NFFF."
