FORT WALTON BEACH — Advance Fire Protection Services recently presented Children in Crisis a check for $1,500 to help provide a home and care to the abused, neglected, and abandoned children of the local community.

According to Ken Hair, CIC President & CEO, "We opened the Children’s Neighborhood in February 2008 and since then; we’ve provided a home to about 880 Kids and have kept all of our brother and sister sibling group families together.  We continue to have a critical need for funds to help sustain operations and care for the at-risk children of our community.  We can’t thank the employees of Advance Fire Protection Services enough for their wonderful support."

CIC is a 501c3 nonprofit community charity of caring people providing homes and establishing hope to the abused, neglected and abandoned children of our community.  Together we can make a difference in the life of a child.  To learn more about CIC, visit www.childrenincrisisfl.org, or call 864-4242.
