A request for assistance

Hallmark is looking for people with great stories about being helped by firefighters or EMS personnel to share their story on camera. It’s an opportunity for a few citizens to publicly thank the individuals who assisted them during their time of crisis. The short film is part of a social outreach campaign that Hallmark will shoot in early November. Suggestions should be from relatively recent incidents in Chicago or nearby suburbs. There is compensation for selected stories. If interested email chicagotruestories@gmail.com
