Fill The Boot Drive
Written by Administrator Tuesday, 21 February 2012 23:30
On Wednesday, February 8th, 2012, Newcastle Firefighters held a Fill-the-Boot fundraising drive to support the Firefighter's Burn Institute. The Firefighters lined the intersection of Newcastle Rd and Indian Hill Rd in the morning and later stood at the intersection of Old State HWY and Kellogg. Thanks to the generous donations of the Newcastle community members, Newcastle Fire's boot drive raised over $2000.00 for the burn institute.
The Firefighters Burn Institute is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the regional burn treatment facility; providing recovery programs for burn survivors; providing fire and burn prevention through public education; funding education for burn team professionals, firefighters, and burn survivors; and supporting burn treatment and rehabilitation research. Each year dozens of fire agencies throughout Northern and Central California help make a positive difference in the lives of burn survivors by hosting a Boot Drive in their community. Thousands of firefighters volunteer every year to collect money in their boots during the annual “Fill the Boot for Burns” Boot Drive fundraisers for the Firefighters Burn Institute.
Newcastle Firefighters want to extend a hearty Thank You to everyone who shared a smile, a wave, and a donation. We are proud to support the Firefighters Burn Institute with the backing of this great community.
