Fundraiser To Benefit Purcell Family
Sat, Mar 26 from 2-5pm (Highland Forest)
Last year Tim Purcell, husband of Treva Purcell, and father of 3 children; ages 17 (boy), 17 (boy) and 10 (girl) was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer. Since this time, he has been receiving on-going treatment, and has had multiple hospitalizations that have been very taxing on the family, both personally and financially. This fundraiser is an effort, on the part of their community, to demonstrate to this family the love of Christ, and to help defray some of their overwhelming medical expenses.
Featuring: DJ, games, bouncie castle, Wii dance contest, raffles and prizes, face painting/hair braiding, baked goods & more!
All proceed will go to offset medical expenses for the Purcells, a local Cazenovia family.
If you are unable to attend the event but still wish to make a financial donation, you could do so by mailing your check, payable to Treva Purcell to P.O. Box 82 Cazenovia, NY 13035.
