Youngstown firefighters fill the boot, raise over $1800 for charity
Continuing tradition, emergency personnel were out for the first time this year for “Fill the Boot” fundraising.
Youngstown firefighters collected donations Saturday as the city was packed for Alice Cooper’s show at the Covelli Centre.
The firefighters spent their evening collecting donations by asking concertgoers to help “fill the boots.”
In three hours, they raised over $1,800 in donations for the Muscular Dystrophy Association.
