The Albuquerque Area Firefighters, IAFF Local 244 sponsored the 4th Annual American Cancer Society CLIMB TO CONQUER CANCER event.  This was a non-competitive event to raise money and awareness to fight cancer. Not only did our volunteers hand out water to the participants, but they were also able speak to those that had lost a loved one to cancer and also to the survivors of cancer.   Senator Timothy Keller stopped by our booth to thank our Union for endorsing him and for being an active organization in our community.  The Director of the American Cancer Society likewise wanted to let us know that he was very thankful for us being a sponsor. 

The IAFF Local 244 Executive Board would like to thank Chaplain Mike Trujillo and the Albuquerque Fire Fighters Wives Auxiliary for their hard work.
