The Community Helpers

Mark thought of the forces in their small community that had the biggest impact in his family’s lives. In the past years, firefighters had helped save the life of his father twice and even if it wasn’t possible for Mark to sufficiently translate his gratitude to an amount to be paid, he thought that maybe there was a way he could help the people who dedicate their lives to serving and saving others. Actually, the fire chief of Camden Point, Walter Stubbs, was Mark and Cindy’s high school friend. Needless to say, it has to be taken into consideration that in such a tiny town, nothing is too coincidental, and so Mark and Cindy came up with an idea for a great present for Walter.

Mark and Cindy Hill made a decision to dedicate some of the money they won in the lottery to helping the local fire station. They came to Camden Point Fire Chief Walter Stubbs, their old friend, and told him that they wanted to give him some funds, but he could hardly believe what they said to him. The fire chief’s initial ideas were unabashedly humble as he considered their immediate needs at the fire station which could be solved pretty simply, such as new equipment or maybe an additional fire truck that could be added to their battalion. He couldn’t have predicted what was about to come next.
