We are excited to bring you another Employee Spotlight! This regular feature acquaints you with both an ARRO team member and a nonprofit that they – and now ARRO – proudly support.

footsteps. I imagine my kids will do the same. My daughter has already shown a love for spending time at the station and learning what it means to be a firefighter. I look forward to when she is able to join and be part of the next generation!My favorite part of volunteering is being able to serve and protect the community. Being a volunteer firefighter has its challenges but, more than that, has its rewards. Overall, being able to help people has always been a major part of who I am as a human being.ARRO is happy to provide a donation to the fire station. What are a few ways monetary donations are used?As a volunteer fire company, we rely entirely on fundraising and monetary donations. These critical funds allow us to maintain and update property and equipment. A large portion goes toward supplies on our trucks including hand tools, hoses, breathing apparatuses, radios, and more. Our equipment undergoes constant wear and tear, so we have to continuously invest in new gear. We put each contribution to efficient use, maximizing our community's support. Every donation makes a difference!Learn more about this year’s beneficiary, Tamaqua's American Hose Company #1, and how you can support them at www.ahco1tamaqua.org.
