East County Firefighters ~ Fill The Boot Campaign
East County residents will be helping local Firefighters this coming Thursday September 2 in the "Fill The Boot Campaign". The annual event is held by local Firefighters to raise money for MDA and Jerry's Kids.
The "Fill The Boot Campaign" kicks off the Labor Day weekend Muscular Dystrophy telethon. Over the years this campaign has raised millions of dollars to help fight this crippling disease. From funding vital 
research of the disease to financial aide to those families suffering with Muscular Distrophy for purchase of wheelchairs and other necessities.
Muscular Dystrophy is defined by the National Institute of Neurological Disordersas follows: "The muscular dystrophies (MD) are a group of more than 30 genetic diseases characterized by progressive weakness and degeneration of the skeletal muscles that control movement." There currently is no cure for MD.
The "Fill The Boot Campaign" and Jerry Lewis' MDA Telethon raises funds that go directly to research, services and education. The worldwide research program of the MDA supports more than 330 different research projects. MDA also sponsors 80 week long summer camp sessions which serve more than 4,000 children annually.
So when you see that Firefighter donating his or her time to help raise funds this coming Thursday, be sure and do your part and "Fill the Boot!"
