All funds raised will be shared with the Alliance Against Family Violence, and Kern County Deputy Jesse Harker and family. Deputy Harker was recently diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma and is undergoing treatment. He has served our community for the past twelve years, and is the sole provider for his family, as his wife is the caregiver for their two children, son Anson 3.5 years of age with special needs, and daughter Madeleine 2.
This fundraising campaign will start December 1, 2019, and will run through Friday, December 20, 2019, at midnight. All donations are 100% tax-deductible and will go directly to those in need. Every donation, no matter the size, is appreciated and will help.
