HOW?:

Maybe a group donation as a sponsor, help pass the word out by posting it on your blogs/facebook/twitter accounts, or you can play in a golf tournament in Thornton on July 25^th 2011. This is a 501(c)3 organization….Hint Hint…..Tax deduction. Monies could be donated to the tournament as a gift from “The Athletes and Coaches of CrossFit Evolve” . You can also go to http://golf.firehero.org/co/foothills/ to sign up as a player or donate amounts from $200 and up. Any amount below that you would like tax credit for, please write Keane@brfd.org and I will see what I can do. 

 

BACKGROUND:

Every year, on average 100 firefighters get killed in the line of duty serving the communities they protect. The National Fallen Firefighter Foundation is the only one that gives support to all firefighters whose death is deemed as in the line of duty. Unlike any other organization they support the paid, volunteer, civilian, military, union or non-union, contract, structural and wildland firefighters. The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation supports the family through ensuring they have what they need to memorialize their loved ones, help them through the death benefit process, providing scholarships and so much more assistance that families and loved ones may need after the passing of their firefighter.
