The Churchville-Chili LEO Club has scheduled its annual March Mayhem Basketball Game. This fundraising benefit will be held on Saturday, March 1, at 1 p.m. in the Middle School Gym C (enter door # 37 near the HS/MS bus loop). Admission to the game is free however donations are encouraged to benefit Zoey’s Light, Inc.
Zoey’s Light is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that is dedicated to helping kids with terminal or lifelong illness in the Western New York area to achieve moments of happiness. This organization is in memory of Zoey Daggett, a spunky, giggly, energetic ball of happiness who loved to sing and bring joy to everyone around here. At age three, Zoey was suddenly diagnosed with DIPG, which is an inoperable brain tumor. The next two years were an intense medical journey of chemo and radiation treatments, which she fought bravely and always with a smile on her face. She passed away at age five and her family and friends were determined to keep her memory alive through the formation of Zoey’s Light, Inc.
The basketball game will bring together the LEO Club, the Unified Team, students, faculty and friends all in the spirit of fun and friendly competition for a wonderful cause. Donations should be made to Churchville-Chili LEO Club and all proceeds will be donated to Zoey’s Light, Inc.
The Churchville-Chili LEO Club is now in its 27th year and is comprised of students in grades seven through 12 in the Churchville-Chili School District. The group is proudly sponsored by the Churchville Lions Club and is engaged in a wide variety of community service activities. The Advisor at the Senior High is Janelle Hernandez and the Middle School Advisor is Catherine Kwiecien.
