The Las Vegas Firefighters Local 1285 recently donated $5,246 to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Proceeds were donated from their “Fighting Breast Cancer” t-shirt fundraiser, which ran throughout October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
 
“We are proud to present this check to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation in support of their worthy cause,” said Scott Johnson, president of the Las Vegas Firefighters. “We are grateful to our community and our members who purchased a shirt. Your donation not only helps get the word out by being able to sport your shirt… It also helps fight this disease and help those in our community fighting their own battle against it.”
