Last night’s dinner and silent auction was simply incredible. All we can say is thank you. Thank you for caring about a little boy many of you have never even met. Thank you for giving so generously. Jonathan may have been born with a half a heart, but he certainly has the most supportive community of family and friends, here in Ankeny but also across the state and country.
Our family is so blessed.
Kyle, Sara, James, and Jonathan
The fun begins 5pm Friday night at the Ankeny High School Cafeteria, 1155 SW Cherry Street. A plate including BBQ pork sandwich, baked beans, potato salad, chips, drink, and dessert is $6. Kids 3 and under eat free. Feel free to arrive whenever it works best for you; food begins at 5pm and continues until it’s gone. The silent auction also begins at 5pm and ends between 7 and 8pm depending on the item. Jonathan’s bracelets will be available for $2, and quilt raffle tickets are available for $2 each or 3 for $5.
