Tomorrow we celebrate a remarkable achievement — the graduation of our fire cadets from the fire academy.

Through months of hard work, discipline, sacrifice, and determination, these men and women have proven they are ready to answer the call to serve their community with courage and integrity. They have trained relentlessly, pushed through challenges, and earned the honor of joining one of the most respected professions in the world.

As you take this next step in your journey, remember that being a firefighter is more than a career — it is a commitment to service, teamwork, and protecting others when they need it most.

Congratulations, graduates! Your dedication has brought you to this moment, and your future is bright. Stay safe, stay humble, and never stop learning.

Welcome to the fire service! 🚒🔥

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers in our communities and within our fire service family.

Today, the members of the Local 936 honor the strength, compassion, and sacrifices that mothers make every single day. Whether you are raising children, supporting a family, caring for loved ones, or standing beside those who serve, your love and resilience inspire us all.

To the mothers who wear the uniform, thank you for your courage both at home and on the front lines. To the mothers who support firefighters through long shifts, missed holidays, and difficult calls, your unwavering support never goes unnoticed. And to the mothers who have shaped our lives with guidance, kindness, and unconditional love, we are forever grateful.

Your dedication builds stronger families, stronger communities, and a stronger future for us all.

🩷 The Corpus Christi Firefighters’ C.A.R.E. Foundation had an incredible time at the Barefoot Mardi Gras Parade on February 28! Not only did our team help ensure the event ran safely, but we also hit the parade route with our Pink Fire Truck to raise awareness for our mission: "Supporting those who Save Lives."

🎉 The celebration continued on April 9th, when the Barefoot Mardi Gras organizers hosted a special ceremony for four local organizations making a difference. We are deeply honored to have received a $10,000 donation to support our ongoing work in the community!

🙏🏼 A huge thank you to Barefoot Mardi Gras for their generosity and for spotlighting the spirit of togetherness that makes our Island so special.

🔥Check out our CC Firefighters CARE page to learn more about how we give back!
