Doug Mummert’s 36-year career as a fire fighter covered a lot of territory, from firefighter to EMT, paramedic, hazardous materials technician, engineer, captain, public information officer, battalion chief, division chief and ultimately fire chief.

He is using that wealth of experience to continue serving the department as president and chairman of the board of the Phoenix Fire Foundation, the department’s nonprofit arm.

If you think the foundation’s main project is the popular Hall of Flame museum, or even the Baby Shots program, you’d only be partly right. There’s the Milo & Moxie™ Smart Safety Rangersprogram, firefighters memorial program, cadet program, Rides for Toys, award program, scholarships, emergency response training, Tribute Truck, and fire department chaplain. Join us to learn about Doug, his background and all the amazing ways the Foundation helps the community.

The Rescuers radio show provides an opportunity to spotlight people who are working behind the scenes to make this world a better place. These people serve as inspiration and idea starters to encourage others to find creative ways to impact their community, their city, and the world.

Host Art Brooks has spent his career in broadcasting, both as on-air talent and in representing the industry as president and CEO of the Arizona Broadcasters Association for nearly 30 years. He was the driving force behind an Emmy-winning series of documentaries on drug abuse that combined a phone bank of 100 seasoned counselors and history-making "roadblock," as every TV station in Arizona and many radio stations broadcast the groundbreaking show on the same day at the same time. He also was instrumental in starting AZ AMBER Alert (one of two states in the nation where broadcasters initiated the program), helped form the Native American Broadcast Institute at Northern Arizona University and consulted with broadcasters in Bulgaria to help build commercial radio as the country was coming out of communism.

Rescuers airs 5:30-6 p.m. AZ time Thursdays on KPXQ-AM Faith Talk 1360, beginning May 7, 2020. Based in Phoenix, it is available internationally online. We invite you to submit names of heroes you think would be good subjects for the show - just message us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/rescuersradioshow/
