We need businesses, churches and individuals that are able and willing to help with funding for this extraordinary event.  All the money raised will be divided between the 8 Eastland County Volunteer Fire Departments and one winner of a drawing who lost their home in the Eastland County fires last March.  The goal is to underwrite the event by raising $100,000. Additional funds will be raised through the sale of tickets for the Shenandoah concert which will conclude the events on Sunday night.  The checks will be presented to the chiefs of each fire department at the concert.  The winner of the drawing, who has been nominated by another person (who also lost their home) as worthy and most needful of the funding to rebuild their home, will also be announced that Sunday evening and their check presented to them.  

A song titled, The Fires of Love, has been written by song writer and Dove Award nominee, Michael Curtis.  The song has been recorded and will soon be available.  A private concert featuring Michael Curtis and Friends will take place at The Lumber Yard and Grimes Gardens on Saturday night.  The guests of honor at the concert will be our local firefighters and first responders.  Food and drink will be provided for this event.

Please prayerfully consider contributing.  We're asking that underwriters consider giving $1000 for each firefighter/first responders for the dinner and private concert on Friday night.  Please sponsor as many as you can.  Checks can be made to the Eastland Community Festival  which has been established for this event.  Please sign your name below and the amount you can contribute, whatever that amount is.  Each underwriter will also be invited to the private concert on Saturday night to meet and express your thanks to these dedicated people who put their lives on the line for all of us throughout the year.  ANY AMOUNT CAN BE DONATED AND WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED!
