Denver Metro firefighters, who are usually saving lives and combating wildfires, are now stepping out of their protective gear once a year to pose alongside some adorable furry guests: little puppies who are looking for forever families.
Funds raised from the sales of this special calendar help with several large expenses such as vaccinations, medications, spaying/neutering and lifesaving veterinary care. Any leftover funds will be spent on the construction of a larger facility based in the Rocky Mountain region.
“It’s raised over $950,000 over the past ten years. Our goal this year is to raise another $200,000,” said Amy VanDerbroek, who’s the calendar’s project manager. “It’s our biggest fundraiser for Lifeline Puppy Rescue.”
The calendar, which was very successful in past recent years, features 18 male Denver Metro firefighters for its 2025 issue.
