PC: Only7Seconds

CHELAN, Wash. — A local movement is hoping to give back to firefighters during a time where so many of them fighting to keep us safe. 

Only7Seconds is best described as a positive mindset movement. The idea is to take just several seconds of your time to reach out and make sure someone knows they’re appreciated. 

“The Firefighters and Hotshots that are working around the clock to save our homes, land, and businesses, are hero’s – but, they are also human,” the movement’s organizers said in an Instagram post. 

So, Only7Seconds is asking for 100 letters to send to firefighters. You can also donate money to send a care package to those firefighters. 

The sentiment comes as wildfires burn throughout Washington and down the West Coast. 

All letters can be sent to Only7Seconds, PO Box 1180 in Chelan, WA 98816. 

“Let’s bridge the gap and let these amazing firefighters know that their work is valuable, they are needed, and we see them in the midst of their weary, tired, and stretched-thin moments,” the post reads.

❕WE NEED YOUR HELP❕ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Can we have five minutes of your time? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As most of you know, the west coast has been experiencing immense loss and tragedy due to fires. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The Firefighters and Hotshots that are working around the clock to save our homes, land, and businesses, are hero’s – but, they are also human. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s been an exhausting season for these first responders and we want to give back. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A note from our Founder: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We are asking for handwritten letters.📃 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These letters will be put into care packages for firefighters. When I did Adopt-A-Family for the 2014 families, the handwritten letters meant so much, and I would love to see us rally together to show our appreciation for all the men and woman who who work hard to protect and serve. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We are hoping to collect 100 letters in the next couple weeks! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Please send to: Only7Seconds PO Box 1180 Chelan, WA 98816 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You can also buy a care package to send to a firefighter or send $ for us to send to fire stations!!!” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you send us a letter, your name will be entered into a random drawing for a FREE t-shirt from our shop! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Let’s bridge the gap and let these amazing firefighters know that their work is valuable, they are needed, and we see them in the midst of their weary, tired, and stretched-thin moments.
