Fairview Firehouse Raises Money for Breast Cancer
Fairview Firehouse firemen had a purpose this fall and it was to raise money for breast cancer support programs.
“We looked around for a local breast cancer charity and found Miles of Hope,” explained Justin Bohlmann of the Fairview Fire District. “We wanted our donation to go to people who we knew were affected by this disease right here in the Hudson Valley.”

“People want to make donations to local organizations where they can see the impact,” explained Ms. Forood. “There are so many people in the Hudson Valley who we have helped over our 10 year history that our track record speaks for itself.”
