Help Broomall, Newtown Square Fire Companies Win $25,000

Nest and the Leary Firefighters Foundation are offering two fire companies the chance to win $25,000. You can help the companies in the Broomall and Newtown Square fire companies win that prize in a few simple steps.

The fire company will have a chance to win the $25,000 grant by having members of the community fill out an online form nominating the fire company.

"Firefighters put themselves on the front lines every day – protecting our communities and acting as first responders in emergencies," the Thank Your Local Fire Department webpage says. "To support these heroes, Nest and the Leary Firefighters Foundation have teamed up to provide two fire departments each the opportunity to receive a $25,000 grant for new technology and equipment."

The nominators will only have to enter the ZIP codes for the fire companies and – to give them an extra vote – share a story about why you think the fire companies should win.

To nominate the Broomall Fire Company for grant eligibility enter the ZIP code 19008, and enter 19073 for the Newtown Square Fire Company. Then share your story about when the fire companies responded to help you.

Visit the contest website to vote for the Broomall and Newtown Square fire companies.

Votes can be cast until midnight on May 18.
