$20,111.55 Raised to Fight Muscular Dystrophy


San Carlos Park Firefighters recently teamed up with the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) for the annual Fill-the-Boot Campaign. SCPFD firefighters manned the intersections to collect your donations and we are proud to say $20,111.55 was raised in a single weekend, making your fire district the 2nd highest fund raiser in Lee County. Collectively Lee County collected $174,631.00!

Firefighters have stood with MDA in the fight against muscle disease since 1954. The funds raised will go toward MDA’s summer camp for children, research initiatives, local clinics, and support groups in our area. Every dollar raised will go directly to children and adults in our community that are affected by neuromuscular diseases.

We would like to sincerely thank you for joining us in the battle against muscular dystrophy by filling our boots with donations. The continued willingness to help others demonstrated by you, the members of our community, is truly inspiring. Thank you again!
