Brad Paisley Helping Firefighters with Local Connection

Country superstar Brad Paisley has helped design a t-shirt with proceeds benefiting the Leary Firefighters Foundation. The LFF was founded by Worcester, Ma native actor/comedian Denis Leary. 

Denis Leary's cousin, Jeremiah Lucey was a Worcester, Mass firefighter. Lucey and five other men lost their lives in 1999 battling a five-alarm fire at the Worcester Cold Storage & Warehouse Co.

Brad has teamed up with Guinness and The Leary Firefighters Foundation to raise $1 Million for local firefighters. Brad helped design a T-shirt as a tribute to firefighters everywhere. Brad's father was a volunteer firefighter and his brother-in-law is a firefighter as well. Brad says, "My father was a volunteer firefighter and showed me at an early age the sacrifices made every day by firefighters and how important what they do to their communities.

Proceeds from the sale of the T-shirt, (which is only $20) go toward the LFF to provide much-needed equipment and training.

Here's one of my favorite videos from Brad Paisley. Such a sweet song. It makes me tear up everytime I watch it.
