A local woman is working hard to organize a Spaghetti Dinner fundraiser for Chatham teen Ebony Vandenbogaerde Oct. 20 at First Presbyterian Church in downtown Chatham.

Renee Kuipers, of Graceful Beauty Medical Spa, is hosting the event and is busy getting local donors and sponsors lined up for raffle items and a 50/50 draw.

Vandenbogaerde is the 12-year-old girl who underwent surgery in April to remove a tumour from her spine that left her a paraplegic. The young girl is currently at a rehab facility in Toronto where she is learning to do everyday activities from a wheelchair.

Kuipers said she is very happy with the generosity of local businesses and community organizations who have offered donations and use of their facilities, and anyone who would like to help out in that regard can contact her at 226-229-9506.

Tickets for the dinner are $15 per person and are available by calling Kuipers or at The Chatham Voice, 71 Sass Rd., Unit 4. The 50/50 draw will be at the end of evening and the winner will be contacted by phone.
