Pasco County Commissioners and Muscular Dystrophy Association’s Firefighters Appreciation Month Proclamation

Declaring the month of September as Muscular DystrophyAssociation’s Firefighters Appreciation month in Pasco. Fighting fires is one of the most hazardous professions, requiring physical strength, stamina, extensive training, courage, and selfless concern for the welfare of our citizens. In addition to their daily service to our community, Pasco County firefighters have joined the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) in the fight against neuromuscular diseases by hosting their “Fill-the Boot” campaign. In 2014 Pasco County firefighters raised over $5,000 for MDA. The funds collected by the Pasco County firefighters assisted MDA in providing medical services at local clinics, summer camp, research grants, support groups, and public education seminars at no cost to local children and families. The 2014 Pasco County “Fill the Boot” campaigns was held on August 15th, 22nd and 29th. Many of Pasco County citizens have benefited from the funds raised by firefighters in the “Fill the Boot” campaign, and these public servants make invaluable contributions to our community in all the tasks they perform.
