Preparations for our biggest fundraiser of the year began in early January thanks to the tireless efforts of board members Dot Jeger and Zina Harter. We are still waiting to get the final donations in from our Fund-A-Need campaign but it looks like we brought in over $75,000! All proceeds will go to patient care.
