Dollywood Bound Fundraiser

Saturday, February 04, 2012

There will be a “Dollywood Bound” benefit in honour of Leesa Roleck on Saturday, February 4th from 12Noon to 4pm in the Ryan Hall, Shuniah Building at Confederation College. There will be refreshments, a silent auction, draws, entertainment and fun. Leesa was born with spina bifida and hydrocephalus.  She also has a condition called chiari malformation type 2.  These issues are causing the nerves in her brain to shut down which is affecting her hearing, sight, speech, and her ability to swallow.  Leesa is terminally ill and her long time dream has been to meet Dolly Parton.  Dolly has arranged to meet her in person at the Dollywood Park in Tennessee but it is quite costly to travel there.  Please come out and support us in raising the funds to send Leesa to meet the person she calls her “guardian angel.” Tickets are available at the College Information Hub and the HAGI Main Office. For more information call Amy at 285-4332.
