Earlier today, 100+ of our members flooded 7 street corners across Buffalo to “fill the boot”. All donations went to benefit SMART (Spinal Muscular Atrophy Research Team). Thank you to all of those who helped out, and especially to the generous citzens of Buffalo.

Last week, Local 282 members visited @OCHBuffalo to bring shirts to Timmy Richardson, a 16 year old firefighter-in-training who’s battling Leukemia. Timmy wants to wear a different fire company’s t-shirt every day during his treatment. His bravery has inspired all of us!
