2nd Annual Fundraiser in Honor of Kelly Gratz

Jul 25, 2017

July 2017 was the second annual fundraiser for the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation in honor of Kelly Gratz.  Kelly was diagnosed in February 2016 with stage 4 Cholangiocarcinoma. His children decided to host a fundraiser to rally as much emotional support for him through this battle and also to be able to raise money for the foundation and research. It was successful last year so they did it again this year. The fundraisers included a softball and volleyball tournament, along with 20+ raffle baskets, silent auction items, and a 50/50 raffle. Also in gathering donations, the facility used to host the fundraiser donated a percentage of all food and drink sales to the foundation.  Lastly, a local horse show that his daughter participated in donated a portion of their money from the riders’ entry... read more
