Benefit Event Planned for Local Single Mother
A benefit event has been planned for a local single mother battling incurable breast cancer and everyone is invited!
Grazyna (Grace) Ferrantino is a 55 year old single mother of four children who was recently diagnosed with incurable Stage IV breast cancer. The cancer has placed physical constraints on her body, keeping her from being able to work since April. As such, she has no income, and is on Medicaid. The Saving Grace Benefit is being hosted to raise money to help keep Grace’s monthly bills paid while she pursues treatment, and also to pay down her Medicaid debt. The benefit will take place at Streator High School on July 24th from 4:30-10:00pm and everyone is invited.
Stop out for a fun night and enjoy:
- dinner, served from 6:00-7:30pm
- live music by local DJ Jacob Aicher
- raffles with great prizes from awesome local businesses
- a silent auction
- bake sale goodies
- entertainment for younger children
- and much more!
100% of the proceeds will go to supporting Grace Ferrantino in her battle against breast cancer. Help us be the “saving grace” that Grace needs, and have fun while doing it!
Bidding starts at 4:30pm and winners will be announced after dinner.
