Massive Maine Softball Tourney Set to Raise Money for Lewiston Victims
In the aftermath of the devastating mass shootings on Wednesday, October 25th, in Lewiston, Maine, many individuals are eager to provide help to the families of the victims.
The Lewiston Strong Memorial Benefit was organized by city members, Derek Haskell, Nick Perry, Anthony Gowell, Zack Timmermeyer, Chase Cote, Mariann Gowell and Dan Labrie. These amazing humans wanted to roll up their sleeves and help.
I had the opportunity to chat with Derek, and he conveyed to me that he is doing this because he loves his city and what it stands for.
"Rallying and having each other's backs during times when we’re down. I was born and raised here. We honor each other to the highest and pick each other up when we’re down," he said. "We are one."
If you represent a business and would like to contribute by offering gift cards or donations, please don't hesitate to contact the event page coordinators.
Every small contribution makes a big difference!
