AHFD MDA sets a record last week!

The Arlington Heights Firefighters Association Local 3105 and the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) had their Fill the Boot Drive on Friday May 30th along with a AHFD MDA Benefit that night at the HOME Bar in Arlington Heights. Because of the 48 members of Local 3105 that volunteered to come out on their off day and with the help of radio stations like 101.9 the Mix and 102.3WXLC and the many local businesses that donated items to be auctioned off that night for the benefit, the AHFD was able to set a record with a total of $26,300.80 collected for MDA. This total beat last years record by $7,000! Local 3105 and MDA would like to thank all the people of this community who contributed to this year's total and if you missed it and would like to make a donation still, you can go to www.iafflocal3105.org/mda and make a secure online donation to go towards MDA, which provides services to local area children who are in need of assistance from this neuromuscular disease. Thank you and "Make a Muscle and Fill the Boot!"
