Supported by EPSCO and the Cyprus Shipping Community
In the face of another devastating fire season, our local heroes at ATLAS, a dedicated team of volunteer firefighters, continue to risk their lives to protect our communities, without any state funding.
Despite limited resources, these volunteers were on the front lines again last night, battling flames with outdated equipment and no operational vehicle fit for purpose. Their resilience is unmatched, but it’s not enough. They need our help.
The Need
ATLAS urgently requires a new firefighting vehicle to respond more quickly, safely, and effectively. This is not a luxury, it’s a life-saving necessity.
Industry Support Begins
EPSCO, under the leadership of Chairman Andreas Ioannou, has long supported ATLAS by donating PPE and uniforms. EPSCO together with CSN are now calling on the maritime and business community in Cyprus to join this vital mission. Together, we can fund the purchase of the new vehicle and ensure our frontline volunteers are no longer left behind.
Your Help is Needed
Cyprus Shipping News fully supports this initiative and invites sponsors, donors, and companies to step up. It’s time the shipping industry, so often a pillar of our economy, becomes a pillar of our community protection too.
How to Help
If you or your company would like to contribute, sponsor or coordinate assistance, please contact:

Let’s act, not just applaud.
Let’s sponsor, not just sympathize.
Together, let’s give our volunteer firefighters the vehicle they need, before the next fire strikes.
