Come support Dothan Fire Department on June 18th as they raise funds to help a child fighting cancer. All proceeds will go directly to the Taylor family in their time of need. Fighting cancer should be a community event to show support.
We invite our community to join us June 18th, for a benefit fundraiser supporting one of our own as their child courageously battles cancer. Childhood cancer is a cause that holds a special place in our hearts. Through our annual Going for the Gold 5K and ongoing support of local families, we have seen firsthand the strength, resilience, and hope displayed by children and families facing this fight.
All proceeds from this fundraiser will go directly to the family to help ease the financial burdens that often accompany treatment, travel, and daily expenses during this difficult journey.
We ask that you come out, show your support, and help us rally around this family. Together, we can make a meaningful difference and remind them that they do not walk this road alone.
Thank you for your generosity, your prayers, and your support.
