SUMMARY:Lethbridge 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb
DESCRIPTION:Lethbridge 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb\n \nOn Sunday\, September 22 2024 Lethbridge Firefighter Charities will be hosting their annual stairclimb. \nThe Stair Climb is a physically demanding activity. The goal is to complete the ascent and descent of 110 stories. This distance is equivalent to the height of the World Trade Centre Towers as they stood before the attacks of 9/11. It is believed that many rescuers would have made a similar climb that day but unfortunately many never returned home. \nWe make this climb to honour those we lost in the line of duty and to ensure that we never forget them. We will also keep our fallen Lethbridge Fire and Emergency Services members close to our hearts and climb to honour them. \nParticipants are encouraged to ask for sponsors in the form of pledges in order to raise money for A New Dawn Foundation and Lethbridge Firefighters Charities Association. Click on the following link to the pledge form & print out as many as needed! \nCLICK HERE FOR THE: Memorial-Stair-Climb-Pledge-Form \nFor those that do not wish to participate but would like to donate\, you can do just that! Click on the following link: https://lethbridgefirefighters.com/donate/ \nA New Dawn Foundation provides support for families of Fire Fighters\, Paramedics\, Police Officers\, Public Safety Communications Centre (PSCC)\, Nurses\, Corrections Officers and Military Personnel of Lethbridge & Southern Alberta. A New Dawn Foundation is also partnered with Lethbridge Therapy Ltd. to offer these local heroes and their loved ones the quality counselling and therapy services they deserve. https://www.anewdawnfoundation.com/ \nLethbridge Firefighters Charities Association is a proud supporter of various charities including Big Brothers Big Sisters\, Muscular Dystrophy Canada\, Lethbridge Family Services\, Diabetes Canada and the LPS Run. To date\, over $400\,000 has been donated to worthwhile causes in southern Alberta. https://lethbridgefirefighters.com/ \nHow participants choose to approach this task is up to each individual with personal level of fitness taken into account.
