Fundraiser event to support family during cancer battle

Friends and family of Jeri Jespersen-Gibson will be hosting a benefit dinner this weekend to raise money to assist her fight against cancer.

Jespersen-Gibson was in remission for four years, but must now travel to the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas to once again battle the cancer.

The event will take place at the Upton Community Center from 5 to 10 p.m., with a steak dinner offered from 6 to 8 p.m.

The evening will also include live music, a cash bar and an auction.

The money raised will help Jeri and her family during her treatment.

If you would like to donate to the auction, contact Ginger at 307-467-5851, Donna at 307-660-5325 or Chris at 307-299-9678. Cash donations can be made at Upton’s FirsTier Bank.
