Marin Firefighters Fill The Boot for MDA!

Help Marin County Firefighters Fill The Boot for MDA!

Come join your Marin Professional Firefighters, Local 1774, as they help Fill The Boot to fight back against Muscular Dystrophy! Each year, the MDA partners with local firefighters to help raise money for families living with muscle diseases. Last year, the Marin Professional Firefighters raised over $50,000 for families in your community!

This year, on May 14th we'll be out in force all across Marin at intersections in San Anselmo, Fairfax, Kentfield, Ross, Novato, San Rafael, Marinwood, Corte Madera, Larkspur and Mill Valley. If you see your wonderful firefighter volunteers out with signs and boots, help us out by throwing in some spare change or making a donation to Fill The Boot!

MDA is the world's leading nonprofit health organization sponsoring research seeking the causes of and effective treatments for neuromuscular diseases. We provide resources such as wheelchair repairs, support groups, and clinics for local people living with over 43 different types of muscle disease. To learn more, visit us at http://www.mdausa.org
