The Interchange Lounge in Jefferson Hills donated a gift card, which was won by Karen Slonaker, for her Berry Crisp dessert. There were raffles for prizes, such as a nerf gun, dart board, cooler and a fishing pole. The money from the ticket sales was donated to the West Elizabeth Food Bank. They collected $191 and a generous donor, (John Serpa), in attendance donated $9 to make it an even $200!
