Roanoke City Fire Fighters Raise $4400 for MDA

Well the total is in and we have raised $4400 for MDA. This beats last years total by over $2000. Thank you for all of the help in raising money. Check out RFFA/MDA for more information as well as the information on our MDA Ambassador Cory Craighead. This young man is certainly a courageous individual. He loves firefighters and looks forward to meeting each and every firefighter in the City of Roanoke. It is amazing that the local MDA Telethon was able to raise over $500,000 (our total included) as well as the local radio stations raising $511,000 for the Hurricane Katrina Relief efforts.
As this year of fundraising for MDA raps up I would like to extend an invitation for you to get involved. The RFFA is currently seeking members interested in organizing next years golf tournament, fill the boot, and MDA Camp Cookout. If you are interested contact me. These events are not all that hard to organize individually, however I have organized all three for the last 3 years and I will be unable to continue this next year. I will stay on as the MDA Coordinator and assist with the events, I just need help with them. If you would like to get involved with RFFA activities this is a great way. I have enjoyed organizing these events and look forward to assisting in the future.
We have several other possible events we would like to put on in the future to raise money for the MDA and other charities like the Burn Camp. Please contact me if you would like to assist in organizing an event.
