Help McMurray Elementary Help a Family in Need!

Buy your raffle ticket today!

The McMurray Elementary School community is coming together to help the family of one of its fourth-grade students.

Geri Whalen, of Venetia, recently underwent a kidney transplant and is currently awaiting a pancreatic transplant. The costs associated with these transplants and the lifelong medications she will need are excessive—but you can help!

To help the family with some of these costs, McMurray Elementary is having a basket raffle fundraiser. The raffle tickets for the baskets will be for sale during the McMurray Spring Evening Events.

Tickets cost just $1 at any of the upcoming events listed below:

* 5th Grade Band Concert (Wednesday, May 8) at 6:30 p.m.
* 6th Grade Band concert (Wednesday, May 15) at 6:30 p.m.
