Carpentersville Professional Fire Fighters will be out in full force raising funds for MDA. MDA (also known as Muscular Dystrophy Association) has a proud partnership with the IAFF. “IAFF is MDA’s single largest organizational sponsor (more than $25 million in 2007), and the logic of the two groups’ partnership has been plain for more than 50 years. From the Atlantic to the Pacific, people from all walks of life are coping with devastating neuromuscular diseases, and fire fighters and their families are among them.” Read the rest of this entry »

Please join us now to protect the life savings public workers pay into and earn!
