All money raised will go directly to Josh and his family. Josh is the MHS High School freshmen baseball coach. I've heard that someone in Durant may also be organizing a benefit for the family.

Fundraiser's/benefits.

There are several things being planned for Josh and his family. This Friday there is the highschool cake auction and the booster club has ok'd that they auction off a cake and donate the money to Josh and his family. Donations are being excepted by Chris Nienhaus at the MHS office if anyone would like to donate. There is also an upcoming Pizza Ranch night, and a benefit is being put together. It's great to see this town pulling together for this family in this very hard time. Keep praying for this family as they get through this very difficult time.

Kudos to the businesses!

I've been involved in a few benefits. They get many requests for help throughout the year.
A lot of us have altrustic ideas, help a person or family in need. Many go for the goodies. Either way, it's a win/win situation.
It is hard to accept charity from others for many of us. Seeing our support system get something for coming & showing support is gratifying.
The businesses that care enough to show support need to hear from us how very much we appreciate them. I know...they get some advertisement out of it & they should. I'd like to say to all businesses that are helping Josh & that have helped many, many others in our community...THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.
