Springville First Responders Foundation

Our hearts are with this beautiful family. Great deputy, who has always served his heart out.
This is a fundraiser organized for this great deputy and the hard times ahead for him and his family.

This is an intro post. Others to follow soon!

But we are grateful for our donors and all those have made this possible. This week we ordered a stadium bullet trap from MGM, and donated it to BYU Police. BYU police is one of our favorites to support because, they work and support so many different agencies. Like other campus departments, they utilize so many different LEOs during events and games and offer tons of great opportunities to agencies around them.

This project will help with training that is far past the regular mandated ones. We can’t wait to see it put to the test.

Did you know firefighters while on their 48 hour shifts are responsible for shopping and cooking for their own meals? Super cool!
Each of the three crews has their very own fridge and freezer to do their meal planing.

We want to say thank you to our amazing community members, especially Sumsion Ranch for donating a steer to the Springville Fire Fighters Local 5439. With the 6 bags (nearly 500 lbs) of local raised beef, all three crews will be able to fill their freezers.
These projects are what help our local first responder teams feel the love from the community!
We had Springville Meat who helped, and got this steer all perfect and ready for them!
We love this community and all of the amazing people at Springville City. Thank you!

Springville Community News

We Love Mapleton City Fire Department!

Come support the Mapleton Utah Police Department tomorrow!

**Last Minute Addition – Help Needed!!**

Tomorrow is our open house for those with special needs. Our first responders are looking forward to interacting with the awesome special needs community (both in Mapleton and our friends in surrounding communities). We have several interactive fun games to play, and the food is being picked up today.

But, I want to add a last minute element to the evening, and I need your help to make it happen. The event ends at around 8pm. I am hoping there are some parents, caregivers, or others with expertise in the field of working with special needs that would be willing to stay a bit later to meet with Police and Fire leadership to discuss emergency responses from their perspective. We want to learn from the people who deal with these challenges on a regular basis. It would be a roundtable forum to discuss challenges that you may see or be concerned about. I anticipate it would be a 30-45 minute open forum discussion.

If you are that person, or know someone that may be willing, please email me at [email protected] so I know how many to plan for.

Thank you,

John Jackson
Public Safety Director

This brings us great joy providing the support to not only our team here in Springville, but to also have the chance to work so closely with other organizations and Dr. Tia White on starting a Utah County wide Peer Support program. We were happy to provide the funds needed to get such a program started. Thank you to all who have helped and supported!

New app to strengthen mental health support for Utah County first responders Helping first responders handle trauma on the job is taking a step forward today at Brigham Young University.

Great work Springville Police Department! Thank you for keep our city safe and holding the line.
Fun Facts:
Every day of February almost 4 (3.7) people were arrested just in Springville City😮
Another fun fact is Springville officers on a volunteer basis fill Utah State DUI shifts. Every month thanks to our City and Department Administrators they receive grants (extra shifts) which serve two amazing purposes, one they give officers dedicated shifts to just looking for DUI’s. and two, officers can volunteer to get hours. We thank those officers who spent extra time outside of their normal patrol to help!
