Every day, kids and adults are diagnosed with muscular dystrophy, ALS and related life-threatening diseases that take away their ability to walk, run, hug, dress themselves, talk and even breathe. There are currently few treatments and no cures.
The Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) and the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) are working to change that. For more than 60 years, MDA and IAFF have been working together to free individuals - and the families who love them - from the harm of muscle-debilitating diseases that take away physical strength, independence and life.
Through MDA’s spirited Fill the Boot program, dedicated fire fighters go above and beyond the call of duty to help families in hometowns across America live longer and grow stronger. More than 100,000 dedicated fire fighters hit the streets and neighborhood storefronts asking pedestrians, motorists, customers and other passersby to make a donation to MDA, helping them fill their boot with contributions.
We are looking for your help! Join us April 18th, 19th, and 20th from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM in the following areas to join LA City Fire Department Fill the Boot for MDA!
DTLA, Boyle Heights, Eagle Rock, LAX/Westchester, Venice, Hollywood, San Pedro, Bel Air, Van Nuys, Sherman Oaks, USC, Mission Hills, Tujunga/Sunland, South LA, Studio City, Tarzana, Beverly Center, The Grove, Century City, Baldwin Hills, Mid-City, and Palms.
