HOW TO SAVE A HOME FROM FORECLOSURE FOR $5
Author: Jim Norbuta // Category: News, Ohio, Real Estate, chagrin fallsSaving a home from forclosure for $5 is a definite possibility.
This fundraiser is to benefit Veronique Tucker and her 5 year old son Alex. Their lives were forever changed when her husband Joe died suddenly on October 19, 2009. Joe was a highly decorated Navy Veteran who served all of us in Desert Storm. Joe and Veronique were married for 16 years, and Joe was just beginning a new business after a lengthy period of being unemployed.
On January 23rd, we held a CHILI COOK-OFF to help Veronique and Alex remain in their home. Although over $3,000 was raised, it will only temporarily allow Veronique and Alex to remain in their Auburn Township, Ohio home.
There were approximately 50 volunteers and 160 attendees at the cook-off, including 20 chili cooks, 20 dessert & corn-bread bakers, and many others who helped with the event. THERE WERE 20 BLUE RIBBON CHILIS PREPARED.
We are selling the AWARD WINNING CHILI RECIPES FOR A $5 DONATION.
Your $5 donation, along with sharing this website address, will save this family another trauma of leaving their family home.
Checks can be made out to The Tucker Family and mailed to:
Citizens Bank 8555 Tanglewood Square Chagrin Falls, OH 44023
