“Our organization is very excited about the upcoming boot drive, and know that this boot drive will be extremely successful,” Liz Coffey, MDA fundraising coordinator said. “We are extremely thankful to L1560 Fire Rescue personnel for all their continued efforts and support of MDA through the Fill-the-Boot campaign.”
