Firehouse Subs’ Seventh Annual H2O for Heroes bottled water collection drive is being held all day Saturday.
Residents can donate one 24-pack of bottled water at any of the six area restaurants to help local fire and police departments, emergency victims, senior and community centers, and more to combat dehydration during hot summer months, according to a release.
Each guest will receive a medium sub in exchange for their donation.
The area restaurants include:
- North Heights Plaza, 8436 Old Troy Pike
- Kettering, 4301 Far Hills Avenue
- University of Dayton, 6 Oakwood Avenue, Ste. A
- Cornerstone, 5239 Cornerstone North Blvd.
- Englewood Gateway Center, 1092 S. Main Street
- Sidney Town Center, 2034 W. Michigan Street
“As former firefighters, my brother, Chris, and I know firsthand the risks first responders face, the dangerous conditions they encounter and the very real need to be properly equipped when responding to an emergency,” said Firehouse Subs Co-Founder Robin Sorensen.
“Through the H2O for Heroes program, we’re proud to provide water that will aid hundreds of first responders and their communities. Some people may not consider water a life-saving tool, but to a firefighter performing physically strenuous tasks in extreme temperatures, as well as those they serve, it is an essential resource,” continued Sorensen.
