Breaking down barriers since 1954

For almost seven decades, Fire Fighters from coast to coast to coast have been enduring partners and supporters of Muscular Dystrophy Canada (MDC), providing important support and funds to break down barriers for thousands of Canadians affected by neuromuscular disorders.

Across Canada, dedicated and passionate Fire Fighters help #FillTheBoot in a variety of ways. Whether it’s a boot drive, a rooftop campout, a stair climb, a truck pull, a pancake breakfast or a sporting event, Fire Fighters are breaking down barriers and making a difference in the lives of countless Canadian families who are affected by neuromuscular disorders. Their support puts smiles on the faces of Canadians, hope in the hearts of loved ones, and trust in the minds of donors.
