[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 86167, member: 3837"] I would call Travis' school and see if you can hold a benefit silent auction there. Go to local businesses and ask for donations of items or gift certificates. Advertise in the school news, if the ISD has a website, on there, through the radio station etc. If you make it into a family event you could run a fall carnival and charge for tickets. Make up games and see if you can get a bounce house rental donated. Get volunteers to run it all so all the overhead goes to his family. If the school has a Parent/Teacher organization, ask them if they've hosted a carnival before, they may have all the games you need. Ask a place like Chuck-E-Cheese to donate some prizes for the kids games. The organization may also have plenty of parent volunteers you can utilize. If your radio station angel knows any local talent, maybe she can MC in the gym with a local band playing music and have a dance area. My heart breaks for his family. Good luck with your endever. What a great thing to do for them! (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
