Dothan Firefighters are high atop the roof of Applebee’s on the Ross Clark Circle for the 2nd Annual Dothan Fire Department – Amanda Cox Foundation Fundraiser.

The Amanda Cox Foundation was founded by a Dothan Firefighter, Sergeant Jason Davis, after the death of his daughter. Sergeant Davis has worked hard to keep Amanda’s memory alive through the foundation while raising much needed funds to help support the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) at Children’s Hospital in Birmingham. Since Jason operates the Foundation, there are no administrative costs withheld from donations. Of all donations, 100 percent go directly to the PICU to provide needed equipment or comfort care items for the children that are hospitalized.

“This is the flagship fundraiser of the Dothan Fire Department,” says Fire Chief Larry Williams. Williams continued, “Our member’s have literally jumped at the opportunity to support this foundation and it’s mission.”

Sergeants Jason Davis and Doug Bell will remain on the roof until 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 4th. The foundation is also selling Boston Butts for just $20.00 while they last. According to Sergeant Davis, “We are only cooking 500 Boston Butts this year.

Last year we cooked over 700 and had customers wanting more, so come out and purchase one early,” concluded Davis.
