Breast Cancer & Smoke Detector Awareness

The Florissant Valley Fire Protection District previously partnered with SSM’s Women’s Health to bring awareness to Breast Cancer and the importance of Smoke Detectors. The firefighters wore pink t-shirts and handed out literature reminding women of the importance of annual mammograms. In turn, during Fire Prevention Week, SSM Women’s Health distributed 9 volt batteries (donated by Batteries Plus) reminding their patrons to check their smoke detectors to make sure they are operational.

Community Outreach Takes Lunch to Armed Forces Career Center

Members of the Florissant Valley Fire Protection District’s Community Outreach Program and “A” shift personnel on duty deliver lunch to the servicemen and women at the Armed Forces Career Center in the Shoppes at Cross Keys, 14049 New Halls Ferry Road.  After the incident in Chattanooga, TN, the Florissant Valley Fire Protection District wanted to show their support of the armed forces, especially those working in the career center right here in our district.  With several veterans among the staff and membership of the district, we know their job can be difficult and we thank them for their dedication and service to our community and country.
