The program\, supported by the Comm unity Matters Grant\, enhances the department’s monthly Fire Safety Stor y Time held at Fire Station 3.14 at the Discovery Center Springfield.\nFir efighters will begin providing a free book to every household with a child in attendance – an effort designed to reinforce key lessons beyond the classroom and into the home. Each book is carefully selected to highlight themes such as fire safety\, good citizenship and the importance of readin g.\nThe initiative is funded through a $4\,000 Community Matters Grant awa rded to the Springfield Fire Department in February. The funding allows th e department to supply books to children who participate in the interactiv e educational sessions\, ensuring that families leave not only with knowle dge\, but also with tools to continue learning together.\n“This partners hip allows us to extend our mission beyond emergency response and into pre vention and education\,” said Cassie Melvin of the Springfield Fire Depa rtment. “By combining fire safety messaging with literacy\, we’re help ing build safer\, more informed households while also encouraging a lifelo ng love of reading.”\nFire Safety Story Time is a recurring monthly even t hosted at the Discovery Center\, where firefighters engage children thro ugh storytelling\, hands-on demonstrations\, and age-appropriate fire safe ty discussions. The addition of take-home books further strengthens the pr ogram’s impact by encouraging continued conversation and learning at hom e.
