MDA is the one of our largest fundraisers, and the "adopted" charity of the IAFF (International Association of Fire Fighters). In April 2003 Local 136 held its 13th annual "Lock-up" for MDA. This was a one day event held at the new Schuster Center in downtown Dayton. Participants were "arrested" on various "trumped up" charges, brought before a Judge and fined for their "crime". At that time they were given approx. 1 hour to raise their bail. This years event raised over $92,000. Last years event raised a similar amount and all proceeds were presented at the local Labor Day telethon. To date Local 136 has donated $343,246.00 to MDA
The IAFF headlined the 2003 Jerry Lewis Telethon by delivering a record-breaking $18.3 million for MDA, the largest single total in the 38-year history of the fundraiser. The IAFF has raised more than $220 million to date and has been the largest national sponsor of MDA for several years. IAFF members have raised more than $220 million for MDA in past 50 years through their passionate Fill-the-Boot campaigns, Chili Cook-Offs, Ride-for-Life events, sports tournaments, celebrity galas, raffle draws, and variety of other fundraisers. This money supports MDA summer camps for children, world wide research efforts, professional and public health education and many other programs.

According to the OAPFF, they are experiencing problems with non-members acquiring our OAPFF/IAFF license plates. The OAPFF is currently working on a more secure process for our members to obtain the OAPFF license plate, in the interim, requests for the documents that are required to obtain the Professional Firefighter license plate should be made through the Local President. We hope the members understand that this is simply a step in ensuring the law enforcement community, the public as well as our membership that those who choose to display the IAFF license plate are truly Ohio's Professional Firefighters. |
