A Big Thank You…

… to everyone who attended our Fall Fundraiser on October 19 and helped make it a success!

The Big Slow provided live entertainment and had everyone dancing, FDNY Emerald Society Pipes and Drums played a moving Circle of Honor, Petite Crevette prepared tasty appetizers, a number of FDNY firehouses cooked a delicious dinner, Brooklyn Cupcake baked some of the best cupcakes in NY, dozens of high end auction items were won by guests, and gift bags full of fun items were handed out.

We are pleased to have honored the dedication and efforts of Steve Buscemi, Council Member Elizabeth Crowley, UFA President Steve Cassidy, UFOA President Al Hagan, Jack Malone, FDNY Rescue Company 5, and retired FDNY members Pete Calascione, Bill Hodgens, and Kenny Pogan.

Many thanks to our Platinum Sponsor HBO and our Gold Sponsors Fire Family Transport, Amsel Family Foundation, and Uniformed Firefighters Association. Thank you to CitiView for providing clear audio and visual, and to all of our  donors.

Volunteers helped the evening run smoothly and all our guests brought high energy and excitement. Both funds and awareness were raised; thank you for helping us realize our mission.

We look forward to next year’s Fall Fundraiser, which will be held on Wednesday, October 18, 2012.
