  1. A $1 ticket/$5 six-ticket 50/50 raffle was announced for a March 20 drawing to help with Rory Connaghan’s medical expenses; a later thank-you confirms donations after the pizza benefit and says the winner was from Charlevoix, but gives no proceeds or winner name.

  2. The notices announced a February 22, 5–8 p.m. pizza buffet with free-will donations, gave mailing instructions, and reported gratitude from Rory and Marie after the benefit. The thread does not provide attendance, proceeds, or medical details beyond the community’s stated fundraising purpose.
