IAFF Burn Foundation Welcomes Burn Survivors to International Burn Camp

September 21, 2009 – More than 40 burn survivors from the United States and Canada are attending the 14th Annual International Burn Camp, organized by the IAFF Burn Foundation to help teenagers cope with their injuries.

As part of the week-long Camp, burn survivors will visit FedEx Field, home of the Washington Redskins, to meet Redskins linebacker Robert Henson, who lost his 10-year-old brother in a house fire in 1997. Burn survivors will tour the stadium with Henson and other players.
