Last night a local restaurant and the Fall River Firefighters Wife Assoc. put on a fund raiser. If I didn't witness it I wouldn't have believed it. The hopes were to try to get a few hundred people though the door. It ran from 6 to 10, at 9:45 the last person entered. Close to 800 people attended. At 8 pm there were still raffle prizes being dropped off. The food donated by local establishments was nothing short of incredible. I guess the citizens of Fall River really came through for these people. Its a good feeling knowing we raised a good amount of money to help the less fortunate.
