For those who have attended Vinney's Raffle these past few weeks, you may have spotted my daughters Laila and Ashlee walking around with some lucky squares for Backpacks 4 SA Kids INC.

Thank you so much to the patrons in attendance who supported this fundraising effort by purchasing tickets throughout the night (and one in particular who donated $50 cash) and thank you to Vinney's Raffle for the opportunity to do so.

We really appreciate your support 💙
