A local marketing firm has a strong message this holiday season, and it’s going viral.
Silent Partner Marketing, based in Manchester, produced a video about “the men and women keeping us safe,” as CEO Kyle Reyes put it.
It was released December 6, and in less than one week has picked up more than 1.3 million views on Facebook and nearly 42,000 shares.
“I am honored to release this video in honor of the police, firefighters and EMS who put their lives on the line for us. I’m hoping each and every one of you who watches this video will tag a first responder (or 10) and share this video far and wide as a show of solidarity and support for them,” Reyes wrote in his post.
The Manchester Fire Department, Manchester Police Department and Manchester Fire Rescue EMS were all involved in the video, which is part of a campaign to donate $500,000 to local first responders and veterans.
Manchester Police Chief Marc Montminy, Fire Chief David Billings and Eighth Utilities District Fire Chief Don Moore were on Fox & Friends on Tuesday morning to discuss the video:
Though it’s not clear if it’s part of the segment, Fox & Friends does have a “Thanking our everyday heroes” piece it runs featuring the stories of our nation’s police officers, firefighters and other first responders, and how they’ve helped the individual.
Here’s the full video, which runs about 1 minute and 45 seconds:
