High School Student Supports Military Families with Fundraiser
High school student Heidi Murr needed to complete a project to fulfill a graduation requirement. Though she knew she wanted her project to benefit the community in some way, she wasn’t sure how.
After much planning, she decided on a fundraiser for VFW's Unmet Needs program. The benefit took place at VFW Post 418. Money was raised through the sale of dinner and raffle tickets. With nearly 150 people attending the event, Heidi was able to raise $1,800 for the Unmet Needs program, far more than she anticipated.
