Chapter News

Members of BKMC Chapter 42 were able to make another donation to the Panhandle Children's Foundation, Inc following their efforts at the 2024 Hogs on the Point fundraiser. This makes the 2nd year that Chapter 42 has had the pleasure of attending and helping with this event. BKMC 42 assists the PCFI with the children's BBQ cook-off by starting and tending to the fires- a job perfectly suited to a club made-up of firefighters.

The PCFI was founded in 2003 and provided financial aid to disabled, disadvantaged, and ill children across the Texas Panhandle. The services they provide are funded exclusively from donations by sponsors, individuals and various fundraising efforts. Examples of things these funds will provide include: durable medical equipment (wheelchairs, walkers, etc), feeding supplies, travel costs and hotel costs for hospital visits, and school supply drives. 

In 2007, the PCFI was gifted a 60-acre retreat, Talon Point located just outside Dumas, TX that they use to facilitate special camps for disadvanted and disabled children.

Brother's Keepers MC Chapter 42 is thankful to supporters who have made it possible for the Chapter to make a donation of $5,750 to The 100 Club of the Texas Panhandle.

The 100 Club has a primary mission to support the efforts of first responder agencies across the northern counties of Texas. Their efforts aid departments in obtaining equipment, materials, educational support and in the event of severe injury or loss, they provide aid that is essential in moving forward for those we leave behind. 

The 100 Club of the Texas Panhandle holds a special place in the hearts of BKMC 42 Members and Officers. The organization provided gracious support to the family of late Dalhart VFD Chief Curtis Brown, who was the founding President of Chapter 42. The Chapter is grateful to have the opportunity to make this donation around the anniversary of his loss.
