The Greater Fayetteville Chamber is pleased announce a new "people's
choice" award to be presented at the second annual Public Safety Valor
Awards on June 25, 2019. This event is presented by Highland Construction
and Restoration and Manna Church to show community appreciation to our
first responders in the City, County and at Fort Bragg. This breakfast event
will be from 7:30-9:30AM at Manna Church, 5117 Cliffdale Rd., Fayetteville.
The People's Choice Award recognizes first responders whose heroic
efforts are making a difference in our community. This award provides
the general public an opportunity to nominate first responders they have
observed in action during the period from April 2018 through March 2019.
The nominee must be currently employed by an emergency response
agency and working in Cumberland County. The nominator may nominate
someone for their response to a particular incident or for activity they have
observed over a period of time. The types of activities include lifesaving,
valor, or awards of merit for service to their community and their agency. A
nomination form, which is due April 30, can be obtained on the Chamber's
website www.faybiz.com under Events – Valor Awards.
The remainder of the awardees are nominated by their chief or agency
head from any law enforcement,fire/rescue, and emergency management
agency who serves Cumberland County. Incidents should have occurred
within Cumberland County in the past year, or have involved first responders
representing a local public safety agency.
Three major awards will be given: a Certificate of Merit for outstanding
work benefitting the department; the Lifesaving Award, in which personnel
put their own safety at risk to save the life of another; and the prestigious
Valor Award, for incidents in which acts of heroism are performed under
extreme risk.
We invite the public to attend – tickets are $25, and are available online at
www.faybiz.com
under events. Please join us in showing our thanks to these brave men and
women who are protecting us every day!
