Hope Bridge Korea Disaster Relief Association (President Lim Chaecheong) announced on September 18 that it provided snacks to about 250 people, including firefighters, at the Cheongju Eastern Fire Station emergency rescue comprehensive training held at the apron of Cheongju International Airport.

Hope Bridge operated a food truck to offer beverages and cup fruits, allowing firefighters who were exhausted from focusing on the training to take a brief break and recover their energy. This support was organized to encourage firefighters who are dedicated to protecting public safety and to express respect for their commitment.

Yoon Paul, a firefighter who participated in the training and received snacks, shared his thoughts, saying, "The unexpected support during the training gave me great strength. Thanks to this encouragement, I will do my best in my duties and work even harder to protect the safety of the public."

Shin Hoon, Secretary-General of Hope Bridge, stated, "Firefighters are true heroes who protect the people," and added, "Hope Bridge will continue to support firefighters to boost their morale and ensure their safety in the future."

The Korea Disaster Relief Association is running the "I Am a Firefighter" campaign and the "National Heroes" campaign to improve public perception and working conditions for firefighters, and continues to support firefighters at disaster sites such as wildfires and floods.
