Baggo Fundraiser is Saturday in Crystal Lake

Heart and Soul Fund: Heart and Soul Fund hosting 17th Annual Family Picnic and Baggo Tournament in Crystal Lake, IL on Saturday August 24, 2019 at 1:00 in Lippold Park – Bonkosky Complex!

All the money raised from this event will be distributed directly to these families to assist them from hardship incurred from family illness.

In November 2015, a super hero emerged. Jacob “ The Brave” Matthaei was diagnosed and began treatment for B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Surgeries, chemo, and the draining trips to and from doctors did not keep this kid down! Throughout his fight, Jacob has held strong to his nickname and been an inspiration to many around him, including his siblings who have risen to the challenge and put on their own hero capes to raise money and awareness for cancer treatment.

This year, Jacob is port free! He’s not out of the woods yet, but is in remission and will be monitored closely. Besides being a brave survivor, Jacob wants to be a policeman when he grows up. He is fascinated by sharks. Favorite foods are pizza and butter noodles. He loves Legos and Superhero’s.

Be sure to catch us on Star 105.5 on Friday August 23rd!!

We encourage you and your family to come to our event! We are excited to be in Crystal Lake this year. You can purchase tickets on our websitewww.heartandsoulfd.org or Facebook Heart and Soul Fund.
