A school in South Boston welcomed home a couple of heroes. Matthew and Martin Mullen, both born and raised in Southie, are now firefighters in Los Angeles. They spoke with students at South Boston Catholic Academy about the recent wildfires in LA. The school’s principal says students worked hard to raise money to help support the LA fire department.
“The students felt like this was one of their highest priorities to do a tag day, do a fundraiser and they put their minds to it, they did all of this,” said school principal Helen Ann Sivian. “They made the signs, they collected the money, it was absolutely amazing. It was all from the kids!”
