Throughout October, affiliates across the United States and Canada promote Breast Cancer Awareness Month in their communities, and wearing pink T-shirts – while raising money for breast cancer research – has become a signature feature of these campaigns.

To recognize these efforts, the IAFF conducts an annual Best Pink T-Shirt Design Contest open to all affiliates. We encourage you to submit your T-shirt designs starting October 1 through Monday, November 1.

As a young teenager, Jim always aspired to serve his community through the fire service.  He first joined the Concord Fire Explorers Program where he transitioned to a member of the Loudon Fire Department.  His love for the service, hard work ethic and pride, carried him to a 20-year career with the City of Manchester Fire Department. Jim was an individual that carried a lot of pride in everything he touched and thrived to find ways to make the lives of people better, both personally and professionally.  This scholarship recipient should exemplify Jim’s characteristics of hard work ethic, pride, community involvement and the kind willingness to help people in general.
