The Maplewood Fire Department faced off against the St. Louis FD in June in a barbecue cook-off, and lost in a close vote. KC Masterpiece donated $5,000 to a charity chosen by the winner.
Now, KC Masterpiece has decided to do the same for the Maplewood FD. Firefighter Matt Wilcox said they also received $5,000 — for participating.
The Maplewood firefighters split the reward evenly among five Maplewood charities:
- Maplewood Mystery Santa
- Ryan Hummert Memorial
- St Vincent DePaul Food Pantry
- MRH program, Joe’s Place
- MRH program, Weekend on Wheels
