District 7 firefighters raising funds by delivering Valentine’s Day flowers

February 1, 2011 • Ferndale

The only thing better than ordering flowers for delivery to your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day is knowing that the delivery fee will support local nonprofit organizations.

Off-duty personnel from Whatcom County Fire District 7 are raising funds by delivering flowers on from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Valentine’s Day (Monday, Feb. 14) during its third-annual Hearts on Fire program.

Firefighters in uniform will deliver flowers that are ordered from Ferndale Haggen Food & Pharmacy at 1815 Main St. (380-7220). Customers are asked to place orders as early as possible to ensure the off-duty personnel can fill all of the delivery requests.

Delivery fees will go to the Community Fund of District 7’s volunteer firefighters association, which supports local youth sports teams, the Boys & Girls Club and other nonprofit organizations.
