Mansfield Fire Local 1820 Raise Over 17k for Charity

Mansfield Firefighters Local 1820 raised $17,720.50 for childhood cancer research.

From Mansfield Firefighters Local 1820:

Mansfield Firefighters Local 1820 held a charitable fundraiser this past Thursday on April 25th for the St. Baldricks Foundation. This foundation allows volunteers to raise money for Childhood Cancer research. The total amount of money raised for this great cause was $17,720.50.

The local would like to say "Thank You" to every one that had a part in the success of this fundraiser and we could not have done this without the support of our community and the businesses that made this possible. The event was held at TGI Fridays in Mansfield and this is the third consecutive year we have held our fundraiser at this venue. TGI Fridays donated 10% of their food proceeds during the event. We also had a 20'x20' tent donated ant set up by Differrentals out of Foxborough MA.

We had several different barbers and hairsylists that volunteered their time and they are as follows: Kenny Picciandra from Stans Barbershop Mansfield, Heather Sullivan from S and G Salon N. Attleboro . Sara Caldeira and Nancy Marino from Knockouts Mansfield and Tara Shumski from Michael Scott Salon Mansfield. Again, this fundraiser would not have been such a success without the support of everyone involved. Thank you very much for everything and we look forward to seeing everyone next year.
