Years ago, my grandfather collapsed and CSO responded calmly and skillfully with invaluable support. I knew then that I needed to be on the team. I’m now proud to be one of the people who will respond should you need to make that call.

If it weren't for CSO’s prompt arrival and exceptional care, my uncle wouldn’t be with us. Their dedication and swift action saved his life and brought us immense relief. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, you will always be a hero to our family.

We appreciate the meaningful difference you make in the community and your commitment to keeping us all safe. You play a crucial role in our ability to host successful events, which would be impossible without your invaluable service. Thank you!
