What does the money raised from the event help fund? Funds raised from the climb supports lung disease
education, advocacy and research programs. Since firefighters
are disproportionately affected by all types of lung disease, we
hope that you will challenge yourself not only physically, but
also challenge yourself by raising funds for this important
cause.
What time do I climb on event day? All
firefighters will climb together at a time to be
determined.
For start time and event day information:
- If you are climbing with your
firehouse team on a separate firehouse team: See your
team captain for information and materials before the event.
- If you are NOT climbing with your
firehouse (but with Firefighters for New York): More information to follow soon.
What gear can I wear to climb? Only
firefighter helmets and boots are allowed. No
gear bags, tanks, hoses, masks allowed. No turn
out gear. All Firefighters will receive an event
t-shirt. We encourage you to wear a t-shirt
honoring those lost in 9/11 or wear your
firehouse shirts.
