HOUSTON, TX – Houston Professional Fire Fighters Local #341 is kicking off their annual Fill-the-Boot campaign at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday February 7, 2012 at City Hall during the City Council Meeting. Be there as Mayor Parker and fellow council members are the first to drop money in the boot and read a proclamation sponsored by Councilman James Rodriguez. Houston Professional Fire Fighters Local #341 has been the #1 department in the country for 9 out of the last 10 years, raising more than $6.3 million during that time and making Houston the city with the biggest heart.
The Fire Fighters count on the generosity of Houstonians as the main reason why the department manages to secure such successful campaigns. Saturday February 11 begins the annual Fill-the-Boot fundraising campaign. Fire Fighters will also be out March 10, April 14 and May 12 to collect funds for the campaign.
The Fill-the-Boot campaign takes place throughout the United States annually and has been raising money for families served by MDA for more than 50 years. Proceeds raised during the street-side
campaign will help support MDA services and research programs, including MDA’s outpatient clinics at Texas Children’s Hospital and The Methodist Neurological Institute. Money raised from
Fill-the-Boot also sends young people ages 6-17 to MDA summer camp, held in Burton, Texas.
