You know me, I want to do as much as I can to help and have spent the past couple of days on the phone with friends gathering up donations for the benefit which is being held. I am hoping to present them with a lot to make this benefit a huge success!
The Kelly's Kause Benefit
Last but not least, we are planning a benefit on Saturday September, 13, 2008 from noon to whenever. It will be held at Pearce Community Center 613 Cedar Chillicothe, IL 61525. There will be food, games, a silent auction, live auction and a kids area. Also, a band will play during the evening hours. Everything we collect will go directly to Scott and Kelly to help defray all the medical costs that have and will continue to accumulate. One more way to help out is to donate something to the auctions. Nothing is to big or to small. Every little bit will help Scott and Kelly so much. You may mail donations to the above address or e-mail Kris at tboyzus@yahoo.com or call 309-360-6694 to arrange a pick up for the auctions. So, come out and have fun while helping a family in need. I know we all want to help out and what better way than a day of food, fun, games and more! Hope to see everyone at the benefit. Sincerely, KelsKause committee Kris Hopple Jeff, Lori and Brooke Wallin Jill Williamson Ellen Grogg Dara Wagner Jackie Noder
In addition to the donations for the auction, I would like to present them with a check so here's where my faithful blog readers come in...for every comment I get on this post, I will donate $1.00.

Worthy cause! Makes one really grateful for good health.
ramble...Oh, so true...Hope to see you there at the benefit! We'll be there!
We won't make the benefit because of a prior commitment, but I hope to have the "Stock the Bar" basket ready in time for the silent auction!
katie...A huge thanks for helping with the basket to donate to the silent auction. Who knows, I might bid on it, win, and we'll have another party!:)
Been there done that. I was diagnosed with that in March 06 but they changed it as it affected my neuron sensory system and not my muscles. It took me a year to get over it. GB is tough to beat but it can be beat. I know she'll come through and recover.
A dollar? And I can only post once? :(
You have such a generous heart.
PAP...So sorry to hear you went through that too, but that's encouraging news! I know they have enormous medical bills and with a newborn baby, it must be even harder on them.
becs...thank you for that nice comment, and just for that I'll throw in another dollar!
BTW, your package is ready to go in tomorrows mail. :) Finally!!!
well i am excited about the package, even though I know its technically not for me :)
becs...actually it will be two packages!I know it's taken me long enought to get them mailed out to you! Sorry...
