Fire Family Foundation Hosts Sixth Annual Fire Boot Classic on Saturday

April 27th Charity Event Supports Firefighters

Published: Thursday, April 25, 2019 | 2:25 PM


Firefighters…  They risk their lives every day to protect their community … “to protect us, our lives and our property. They are men and women like you and me, yet, they serve… every day to ensure that we are safe.” Their commitment to helping others is second to none. With all of the devastating fires the past few years, many firefighters lost their homes while helping to save so many others.

 On April 27, 2019, Fire Family Foundation is hosting its 6th Annual Fire Boot Classic Charity Event at the London Hotel in West Hollywood. This event is a Casino Night and Poker Tournament, with Drinks, Dining, a Silent Auction, Live Auction, and Fun! The funds raised from this event will support the Firefighter Relief fund that provides financial assistance to firefighters and their families in times of need. The mission is to be there… “when they need our support.”

 As the charitable hand of Firefighters First Credit Union, the Foundation provides vital financial assistance to the Fire Family. We also award $50,000 in scholarship grants each year to the children of active or fallen firefighters nationwide and we help 501(c)(3) tax exempt organizations to support the local charitable needs of fire departments, firefighters and their families and other charitable causes within their local communities.

 Please show your support for firefighters who sacrifice so much for the safety of the surrounding communities, for your safety.

 London Hotel is located at 1020 N. San Vicente Blvd. in West Hollywood, CA 90069.

Open Banking To Hit $94B By 2029—But U.S. Lags Amid Global Surge

Yet despite its rapid evolution and expanding global footprint, adoption remains uneven—hindered by inconsistent regulatory frameworks across countries. According to GlobalData, this disparity poses a key challenge for the sector’s success, with the U.S. notably trailing behind global peers in embracing open banking. The U.K. pioneered open banking and continues to be one of the leaders globally. The country has seen the number of users increasing, with there being 12.09 million active users of open banking in 2024 and 223.9 million payments made. This is an increase of 72% compared to the year before. “As open banking continues to flourish, it is positive to see that the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Payment Systems Regulator (PSR) have outlined how open banking can expand further in the U.K., and also be used in variable recurring payments and e-commerce.
