What Is Feed The Fire

Feed the Fire was started in 2014 in the memory of Weston Keeton. 2014
Weston was a 7 year old boy, from TN, who was diagnosed with congenital heart defect at 9 days old. Later he also suffered
Pulmonary Hypertension. The last three years of his life was mostly
spent in Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Weston was full of life
and loved firemen, police, and service members. The local 22 firemen association
adopted Weston and his
family. Upon his death
Weston was honored with
a fireman’s funeral. It is our
hope that you will help
“Feed the Fire” by giving
back to your local hero,
whether they are firemen,
police, EMS, service
members, anyone who is
your hero. We will be
doing this on March 23
2015. Hope to see you
there.
“Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.”
― Desmond Tutu
How We Did Last Year.
The first annual “Feed the Fire” was
a fantastic success. I was blown
away by the out pouring of support.
People from around the world got
together to show their support of
their local fire departments. Over
100 fire stations were fed. Lots of
smiles and the story of one little boy
and his love of helping people was told.
Hopes For This Year!!

“How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a good deed in a weary world.”
This Year I would love to feed twice the number we had last year. I know we can
do it. I would love to see more pictures. I would love to see people take this on as
project, form teams. We are so grateful for anything you can do to help. Stay
tuned for more info at our Facebook page. . Losing Weston is hard but by helping
to give back to the people who reached out makes it a little easier. I am, as
always in awe of the support we received and thankful for what you do.
