MDA Fill the Boot Campaign

Each year, Midway Fire Rescue like many fire departments across the nation participate in the MDA Fill the Boot Campaign raising money for muscular dystrophy, ALS and related muscle-debilitating diseases that take away physical strength, independence and life. This year, Midway Fire Rescue was set up at BI-LO Grocery in Litchfield with a crew starting Friday, November 4th until November 6th for just four hours each day. Midway Fire Rescue raised a total of $969.00 in just under twelve hours total of being at BI-LO Grocery. We are proud to have such a giving community and thank each person that donated to this great cause.

About MDA

We use our collective strength to help kids and adults live longer and grow stronger by finding research breakthroughs across diseases, caring for individuals from day one and empowering families with services and support in hometowns across America.

Fill the Boot Campaign

MDA’s spirited Fill the Boot campaign is an honored tradition in which thousands of dedicated fire fighters hit the streets or storefronts asking pedestrians, motorists, customers and other passersby to make a donation to MDA, using their collective strength to help kids and adults live longer and grow stronger.

Fill the Boot donations benefit MDA’s shared mission to find research breakthroughs across diseases; care for kids and adults from day one; and empower families with services and support in hometowns across America.

In 2015, more than 100,000 fire fighters participated in Fill the Boot events across the country and raised $25.5 million.
