In Memory Of Charlie Walsh benefitting the FDNY in Crisis
FDNY
Tamaqua
Brooklyn, NY
On July 5th , 2009 my family hosts a benefit at the Tamaqua in Brooklyn NY located on Ebony Ct. We lost my father Charlie Walsh to suicide. Every year we plan to donate money to the Crisis Counseling for the FDNY. We are looking for donations for are raffles that will contribute to the FDNY. If you can come or donate you influence to the benefit it would be greatly appreciated. To many firefighters suffer from depression and don't reach for help. Please help us reach out to the society on these issues. Thank you for your time , Caitlin Walsh.
