Hall County Fire Services is joining other fire departments throughout Georgia in the Annual “Give Burns the Boot” Drive, benefitting the Georgia Firefighters Burn Foundation. The event will be held on three consecutive Fridays during the month of October. You can also donate online at https://fundraise.gfbf.org/team/149335.
The Georgia Firefighters Burn Foundation is a non-profit organization whose mission is to partner with the fire service and burn care community to provide fire safety and prevention education, support medical facilities, and assist burn survivors in their recovery.
Among activities made possible by Boot Drive proceeds is “Camp Oo-U-La”, Georgia’s only camp held exclusively for burn-injured children. The camp, paid for entirely by the GFBF, allows campers one week a year in which they can live without society’s comments and stares, and just be kids.
The remaining HCFS Boot Drive dates are October 19 and 26.
