Events and Activities : VINTON FIREFIGHTERS ARE “FIRED UP” TO HELP MDA

Vinton firefighters will participate in a fundraiser called “Fill the Boot” on Saturday September 3rd to benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Firefighters will be at the intersection of C Avenue and 4th Street with their boots so motorists may make a donation to help them in their supports of MDA. Firefighters are dedicated to saving lives and protecting people; their alliance with MDA proves that we are working to save lives and fighting to find a cure.

MDA helps children and adults who are affected by any of 43 neuromuscular diseases covered by MDA’s comprehensive medical services and research programs. MDA receives no government funding and charges no fees to those families served by the Association.

Please take a moment to drop some cash into a boot when you see your area firefighters out on the streets so you can help “Make a Muscle, Make a Difference.”
