During the presentation of her check award, Olivia thanked WISA and the West Allis Fire Department for the opportunity the scholarship offers her. She wrote in part of her essay for the contest: “I am incredibly grateful to a have a firefighter as my dad. He has taught me that helping others should always be a priority and
to live each and every moment fully. My dad has pushed me to become the best version of myself and to stay involved in the community. Furthermore, his job has encouraged me to go into the medical profession of nursing in the future. I have learned to always look for the positive in negative situations I would not be the person I am today without my dad’s job as a firefighter. My dad is my hero.”

“Because of the characteristics that my mother has modeled for me, I have developed into an individual with a passion for helping those around me, and giving back to my community. I will forever be grateful for everything she has taught me, and continue to live my life how she would. I am honored to witness the role my mother plays in protecting the community, and I am
even more grateful to experience how to go above and beyond one’s job description by making a difference in the life of everyone you meet.”
