firefighters and other first responders to obtain
critically needed equipment, protective gear,
emergency vehicles, training, and other
resources needed to protect the public
and emergency personnel from fire
and related hazards.

Local 76 is currently collecting goods to send over as part of the Haitian Relief Effort.  Employees of the Iron Mountain Records Company in Somerville have obtained a shipping container that they are planning on filling with goods to send over to Haiti. 

A box has been set-up outside the Local 76 Union Office at Headquarters for members to drop-off donations.  Please help out.  We have not received a time frame from Iron Mountain Records as to when they will be having their shipping container sent, so please drop-off your goods as soon as possible.
