ARA CEO Paul Zahra said it is vital to continue to recognise and thank our first responders for their community contribution.
“In addition to their daily sacrifices, our first responders have steered us through a global pandemic, unprecedented natural disasters and emergency situations in recent years,” he said.
“First responders are grappling with ‘perma-crisis’ environment and we owe an enormous debt of gratitude to our first responders for helping our communities remain resilient through these intensely challenging times.
“First Responders Day is now in its fifth year. It is the retail industry’s way of showing our appreciation to those who sacrifice so much to keep us all safe and healthy.”
