June 16, 2008 - With only two fire stations and 33 fire fighters, Upland, CA Local 3477 raised an amazing $38,562 during its two day Fill-the-Boot drive. Upland fire fighters participated with tremendous energy and enthusiasm for collecting money to help fight neuromuscular diseases. IHOP donated a pancake breakfast and Outback Steakhouse generously donated a barbecue lunch, making the event a huge success.

Members of Local 3477 are thrilled to be making a check presentation at the 2008 KCAL 9 Labor Day Telethon.

MDA extends a very special thanks to Upland Local 3477 fire fighters for their dedication!
