The Annual Signature Chefs Food Festival
OUR WHY
This year’s Fire Prevention Week theme, Charge into Fire Safety™: Lithium-Ion Batteries in Your Home stresses how important it is to BUY, CHARGE, and RECYCLE safely when it comes to lithium-ion batteries. This year’s theme expresses the mission of the fire service to strive to educate everyone about the small but important actions they can and should take to keep themselves, their families and neighbors safe. On Oahu, it is the HFD’s invitation to the community to spread the word and work together to make Honolulu a safer place from the risk of fire.
Another key initiative funded through your support is an annual endowment to the Straub Burn Center. With this endowment, Straub Medical Center’s Burn Unit continues to invest in technology and training to bring state-of-the-art burn care to patients in Hawai‘i and across the Pacific Rim. This highly specialized care is provided by a dedicated multidisciplinary team at Straub, who often spend months with patients. In addition to technology and training, gifts support education of community first responders in ABLS – advanced burn life support – skills.
Your kind support and donations also help to support other worthwhile events such as giving proper recognition to our HFD fire recruits as they graduate and join the firefighters throughout our fire stations who protect our community 24/7.
We Mahalo our supporters who continue to kokua for the cause.
