The CF PGO is holding an
Eat Out Fundraiser to Benefit Sabir Anderson and his family.
His story:
South Amherst resident
Sabir Anderson, age four and a half, was diagnosed with a malignant tumor a few
months ago. Thankfully, cell activity is localized only to his
bladder area. While we do not know the length of time it will take
for Sabir’s health to be fully restored, his medical team is optimistic about
his prognosis. During the treatment and recovery phase, expenses are
staggering. Even with customary employment insurance coverage, the costs
associated with weekly hospital trips, a 6 week long hospital stay, radiation
and chemo therapies, daily medicines, visiting-nurse home care, and any other
unforeseen accompanying expenses can be overwhelming for a median income
household. That is why we are asking for the community’s help. Participation
is simple, have dinner with family and friends at The Pub. They will
donate a portion of their proceeds to a fund set up for the family. We
will also be holding a 50/50 raffle and accepting additional donations
throughout the evening.
