Prince George fire fighters will be holding out their boots to raise money in support of Muscular Dystrophy Canada on Sept. 9 and 10.
They will be in front of Walmart, any of the four Save on Foods locations, Costco, and Pine Centre Mall from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
The boot drive is a fundraising event where local fire fighters go out into the community and collect donations from the public, using a fire fighter boot to collect the donations.
Since 1954, Canadian Fire Fighters have been helping Muscular Dystrophy Canada fight the battle against 150 types of neuromuscular disorders characterized by the wasting and progressive weakness of muscles.
Some diseases are life-threatening and presently, there is no cure.
The money raised by Prince George Fire Fighters will be put towards the purchase of mobility equipment, to improve the quality of life for people living with neuromuscular disorders.
