IAFF Local 244 Sponsors the "Displaced Families Fund"
Updated On: Feb 09, 2011
As Fire Fighters we are defined by our commitment to the community and that commitment doesn’t stop when our shift is over. We are known for going above and beyond the call of duty. We are proud to sponsor this fundraising effort to assist the citizens and families that were displaced due to the Royal Crown Apartment fire. We are calling it the “Displaced Families Fund.” We are working with Rio Grande Credit Union to collect the contributions for the next thirty days. Visit any Rio Grande Credit Union branch and ask to contribute to the “Displaced Families Fund.” RGCU will collect contributions until March 9, 2011 then we will distribute the contributions to the people affected.
