The "Marisa's Journey to New Lungs" Fundraiser was a huge success.

The fundraiser that was held on Saturday, March 22, for 12-year-old Marisa Wade, who suffers from Cystic Fibrosis, was a huge success and the family would like to thank everyone who turned out to support “Marisa’s Journey to New Lungs.” Marisa will be making a trip on March 30th to see if she is eligible for a transplant and to be put on the donor’s list. This event helped to make a difference in this young girl’s life. You can follow Marisa’s progress on Facebook.
