The Gustafson Family: Two Final Fundraisers Huge Success

December 11, 2009 · Leave a Comment

The Gustafson’s, whose darling son, Nicholas, has SMA Type 2, end their Unite fundraising with a bang — a beauty salon raffle drawing and a poker night bring in more than $1,500!!!

Beauty Temptations hosted the raffle drawing to benefit Unite for the Cure! The raffle raised $933 through generous donations of family, friends, and community members. I was told that one gentleman drove 45 minutes to buy raffle tickets! Katie let Nicholas pick a couple of winners…Then her son, Grant, picked one…and her daughter, Gwendolyn, picked a couple, too…All the excitement tuckered Nicholas out so he cuddled with Grant on the couch while Katie called the winners.

Thank you to everyone who participated in this fundraiser and a special thanks to Katie Lewis…you are an amazing friend! We love you so much and appreciate everything you’ve done for us!




And then for their final fundraiser, the Gustafson’s gathered friends and family for a fun night of poker.

We raised $600 total and couldn’t be happier! It was a fun night for everyone. Thank you to all of the people who came out to support this worthy cause and a special thanks to my parents who let us host the event at their home.
Well done Gustafson family! This additional $1,533 brings your total contribution over $6,700! Incredible! Way to go! And thank you!!!
