The First Annual Taylorsville Big Give, A BIG Fundraiser for a GREAT LITTLE Kid: Saturday, May 31st from 4:00pm – 9:00pm

The City of Taylorsville Youth Council sponsors several fundraisers a year for worthy causes. This year, one of the events they have chosen to sponsor is the Taylorsville Big Give, a fundraiser for Jonah Gomez, son of Jessica Kasparian-Gomez.

This evening’s events will include a guest appearance by the Utah Jazz Bear, music, food, carnival games, inflatables, climbing wall, face painting...an enjoyable evening for everyone.

We will also be holding a silent auction. Some of the items include: A Deer Valley Getaway, White Gold Diamond Pendant by Passey & Son Jewelers (valued at $800), and Bike Packages by Edge Composites (valued at $10,000).

There is no charge for admission to the event. Donations are gladly accepted.

Jonah is a four year old boy who has two rare blood disorders, and a heart condition, requiring frequent transfusions. He is the only known person in the world to have both disorders.

We are holding a fundraiser to offset medical bills incurred by Jonah’s medical condition, and to raise money for bone marrow/stem cell and cord blood awareness, as Jonah may benefit from a stem cell transplant in the future.

The Taylorsville Big Give will be held May 31, 2008 from 4:00-9:00pm at the Taylorsville High School Gymnasium, located at 5225 S. Redwood Road , Taylorsville , Utah .

If you would also like to donate items for the silent auction or offer direct financial assistance to the family please contact Jodi Grizzle @ jodigrizz@hotmail.com, or (801)557-6294

And of course don’t forget about Strut Your Mutt (http://www.utahpets.org/strut.html) or the CUFF Cancer event (http://www.cancer-wellness.org/)!
