The International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) has collected critical funds in the community since 1954 – one dollar at a time – as part of the Fill the Boot program for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). The Las Vegas Professional Fire Fighters, Local 1285 will be continuing this long-standing tradition as its members kick off the annual program raising funds to support MDA’s vision to accelerate research, advanced care, and advocate for the support of MDA families.

To kick off their fundraising for the year, Las Vegas Fire Fighters L1285 are partnering with Mondays Dark to host a fundraising event on August 8th. The mission of Mondays Dark is to raise $10K in 90 minutes for local organizations in Las Vegas. We are looking for generous and community-focused businesses to partner with us on this event in support of MDA. We’d love to showcase a signature item/gift card from your company in our auction. Your donation by Friday, July 22nd secures the following benefits:

Your participation not only helps MDA to empower the people we serve to live longer, more independent lives, but it also offers you an effective marketing opportunity. You will have visibility among several hundred attendees, including musical acts and stars from Hollywood and The Strip.
