Help ‘Fill the Boot’ this weekend at Carolina Beach

CAROLINA BEACH, NC (WWAY) — This weekend you can help the Carolina Beach Fire Department with their annual ‘Fill the Boot’ fundraiser for the Muscular Dystrophy Association.

Volunteers will line the intersection of Dow Road and US 421 to take donations that support MDA camps in Southeastern North Carolina.

Money raised will also help search for treatments and cures for muscular dystrophy, ALS and other related diseases.

The Muscular Dystrophy Association camps are for children with neuromuscular disease to enjoy the outdoors in a safe and fun way.

Firefighters will be passing boots for donations from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Saturday.
