  • Hi there, I would just like to give a big shout out to my local Hall 8 in cloverdale. I have a little boy who is 6 years old. From the time he was 7 months old we have had the men and woman of Hall 8 attend our home, many times. Our son has a condition where he is need to emergency medical aid far too often, several times a year, sometimes a few times a month.....but the Fire department at Hall 8 always arrive within minutes, and they have been just amazing to our baby throug...hout the years.
    One time a couple years ago I was working downstairs in my studio, and my babysitter turned on our oven and accidently lit a pizza box that was in our oven on fire, YIKES! The fire department was dispatched due to our hard wired alarm system and Hall 8 attended.WHen they got here we had taken the box outside but our house was so smokey, and we could not get the alarm off. It was so embarrassing. The chief at that time got on the phone with the alarm company and managed to get them to shut it down and in the mean time he had his crew set up this fan system and clear the house, not once making us feel as stupid as we felt. This MORNING we made a call to get ambulance assistance to the hospital for the little guy and of course Hall 8 arrived and started their assessment. Very kind and professional, always smiling and kind. Once the paramedics arrived and took over, what I didn't know is that the fire department was checking my smoke alarms! As my little one was being loaded into the ambulance there was 2 fire fighters on a ladder installing a brand new smoke alarm in our hall that had been found expired. I was so impressed. I just wanted to say thank you, and let you know as a single mom of 3 boys, knowing we are so close to the very hard working men and woman of Hall 8, its a great comfort and relief to know they are here for me and my boys.

  • Dear Surrey Firefighters, We are students from Latimer Road Elementary and we would like to thank you for making a difference!  Our class read an article about the Surrey Fire Fighters School Nutritional Program and we appreciate that you are helping hungry children in our community.  We are children who would like to contribute to your cause.   Our class read about firefighters who donated their time, community members who donated money and companies who donated food.  We felt proud and hopeful that kids in need are being cared for.  After reading about the School Nutritional Program, our class talked about how we could also assist.  We have decided that we would like to help out by collecting donations from our community and we could also donate snacks and drinks for you to deliver to schools.  Thank you for recognizing that children require healthy meals.  We are deeply grateful for people like you who bring awareness to our community and motivate others to support worthy causes.        Sincerely and gratefully, Division 1, Latimer Road Elementary School

  • Dear Surrey Fire Fighters Charitable Society, I would like to express my thanks for the wonderful help you gave our weeks of summer soccer and day camps, jointly sponsored by the Southside Community Church and Living Hope Christian Fellowship.  The money went a long way towards helping us give nutritious snacks and lunches for our kids.  One child in particular comes to my mind, a girl in grade 5, who was obviously hungry, because of the amount of food she consumed for her age.  We are looking into getting more assistance for her family, but I know there were many others who enjoyed not having to worry about food.  Some of the volunteer young teen staff also cam from homes where there wasn’t enough food, so they too benefited from this.  We have had the story about your charitable society from our local newspaper pinned to our bulletin board at church, with the notification of how much you have helped us. Again, thanks for helping us making kids lives better  
    Linda Peters, Director of Childrens Ministry,
  • “With your generous support, we have launched a modest breakfast program. Under the supervision of the School Administration and a Teacher, 15 to 20 of the most needy students will be invited to come to school to have a simple breakfast of cereal toast or muffins and juice. These students will also receive help to prepare for their school day, both before and after school and hopefully make a meaningful connection to their school and education."

    Julie Stephenson, Food Services Manager, School District 36
  • “On behalf of the staff and students, thank you for sponsoring our school for the nutritional snack program. Our records show that, on average 20 students regularly ‘need’ to take advantage of the nutritional snack program. As you can imagine, in a school such as ours, having the means to help children with their most basic needs is critical to their overall school experience and ability to learn – we can only hope that this program will be available in subsequent years."

    Principal Surrey Elementary School,
