The O’Fallon Fire Protection District proudly announces the Keira Strong Challenge, in remembrance of honorary OFPD firefighter Keira Stout.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The 9 year old, who passed away earlier this year, is remembered for her optimistic outlook, even while battling a rare form of cancer called rhabdomyosarcoma.<\/p>\n

She first joined the OFPD ranks in October 2016, when she received a uniform, badge and personalized purple fire helmet. She captured crews’ hearts, who were incredibly inspired by her strength and resiliency.<\/p>\n

The admiration was mutual, according to her mom.<\/p>\n

“She was dancing around saying, ‘I’m an honorary firefighter!'” Robin Stout told ABC news<\/a> at the time. “She was just skipping through the firehouse and was so excited. I was so overwhelmed by their kindness and love and the whole thing was completely amazing.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
The Keira Strong Challenge \u2014 a kids’ firefighter challenge \u2014 will help young participants better understand the work of a firefighter in a fun, age-appropriate setting during community outreach events, while also teaching them exactly what it means to be #KeiraStrong<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
