It is partnerships like these that promote our community and elevate the learning experience of the kids who participate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor over thirty years the Safety Village has been saving lives through education,\u201d said Fire Chief Lahey. \u201cThis has only been possible through the generosity of all of our partners, including Norfolk Southern. This latest grant will allow us to expand our programing and ensure that all of our local children can benefit from this life saving work!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Safety Village, located at 1270 South Phoenix Parkway, teaches children about safety in a way they can understand. Fort Wayne is fortunate to have this unique 3.7-acre complex, the largest one of its kind in the country. The picturesque village, constructed in 1991, consists of 30 miniature buildings and a downtown area incorporating 16 structures. This facility combines both police and fire safety educational curriculums in one location. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fortwaynefiredepartment.org\/education\/programs-services\/survive-alive-house\" target=\"_blank\">Click here<\/a> for more information about the Safety Village.<\/p>\n<p>The grant is part of two community programs launched by Norfolk Southern in 2023: the Safety First Grant Program, which seeks to advance safety organizations and initiatives, and the Thriving Communities Grant Program, which aims to promote economic opportunity, support vibrant community life, and provide equal access to basic necessities. Award recipients are selected annually from across the railroad\u2019s 22-state network.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/bc\/68975.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Clean up is progressing at the Broadway Auto &amp;amp; Truck Repair shop after a fire.
