MDA / Fill The Boot
The members of the Fayetteville Professional Firefighters Association want to thank everyone who helped make our 2008 Fill The Boot campaign a success!!! Our one-day campaign helped us raise close to $1000.00 to help fight neuro-muscular diseases. The money raised will help send local kids with Muscular Dystrophy to camp and pay for medical equipment and treatment.
Our special Thanks to Cross Creek Mall for allowing us to hold our Fill The Boot campaign inside the mall food court.
