I Can Drink to This

Less than an hour after arriving in New York City, I ran into this truck.

The website on the truck isn’t working well, but I found the info on Jim Beam’s website. I was not previously aware of the Terry Farrell Fund. What do they do? Jim Beam covered it well.

The Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund helps those who need it most. That’s why Jim Beam® is helping them. They don’t have a telethon. They don’t seek the spotlight. They collect unused firefighting equipment and give it to underfunded fire stations. They award scholarships to firefighters’ kids. We champion The Stuff Inside, and we found it driving families of injured firefighters to the hospital. We’re helping the Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund. Donate. Volunteer. Swing by your local fire station with a pizza and say thanks.

Love it.

I’d love to get my hands on two bottles of the firefighter label whiskey: one to keep and one to, uhm, test. Apparently they were released in May 2009, so I’m late to this news and probably won’t be able to find any bottles, let alone two. That said, the FireFamily is adding the Terry Farrell Fund to our list of charities that we support. I’ll probably mention it in our September 11th post.

Until then, if you can track me down a bottle, I’d be grateful! (Edit: Found 4 bottles on eBay for $45 plus shipping. I’d prefer to buy it from someone/somewhere who isn’t price gouging to make a profit.)
