Henrico heroes are helping kids by showing their mustaches

Henrico Fire has teamed up with Henrico CASA for the annual Mustaches 4 Kids Richmond campaign.
This is the third year the two groups have come together to support CASA's mission of helping kids who've experienced abuse or neglect and are navigating their way through the court system.
“It's really special because we have a couple of firefighters that also serve on CASA, and so having that connection to them through that, knowing that it's going to help them do a better job and access more kids, that's pretty moving," Henrico Fire Chief Jackson Baynard said.
"We so appreciate their support," Kristin Blalock, community engagement coordinator for Henrico CASA, added. "We feel like we're picking up where they left off."
Blalock said the Mustaches for Kids campaign is a breath of fresh air to her team and firefighters, as they work with families in crisis daily.
