Reaching out to my fishing brothers and sisters

[King Slammin]

My mom was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer a couple months ago. She is currently undergoing chemotherapy, and will eventually have surgery and radiation to follow. She has lived a simple life, raising my sisters and I while working at Walmart for over 20 years. Unfortunately the health insurance she has is not very good and her bills are really starting to pile up. We are organizing a benefit for June 4th of this year to be held in Newfane. I am looking for some donations to include in our basket raffle and large ticket item raffles. I know in the past some of you charter captains have donated charters for other benefits I've helped organize, and I thank you very much for your kind contributions. We also have a budding group of entrepreneurs, developing their custom tackle businesses. What a great way to get your name out in the best Spring/Early Summer port on Lake Ontario. If anybody is willing to donate anything, please contact me via PM or text my cell at 716-316-1831. I can pick up locally almost any day. Rochester area, my sister can pick up. Thank you all in advance.

Well, we are less than two weeks away from the benefit for my mom. I'm still actively seeking donations and gift baskets. We are holding it at the Olcott Firehall on Sunday, June 4th. 1-5pm. I have tickets for sale, if anybody would like to attend. Tickets are $20. We have all sorts of donations. Salmon fishing charter out of Wilson aboard Dublin Up, numerous tackle baskets, tools, salon gift certificates, kids stuff, dinner gift certificates, a 55" Smart TV, etc.


She has been taking the chemotherapy like a champ and only has a few treatments left before she will get a much needed break before surgery. I just hope we can raise enough to help her with all the added expenses that come with this terrible disease.
