Fundraising Event to Benefit 2-year-old Leukemia Patient

Edison, NJ— When township musician Jerry Ganz played his first show with his band last year, little Christopher Krakowiecki was there to support him.  When Christopher’s parents, Melissa and Matt, told Ganz that the 2-year-old had been diagnosed with leukemia just before Thanksgiving of last year, Ganz wanted to support his little buddy and the family in any way that he could.  “Christopher is my next-door neighbor, and when I heard about [his illness], I told my wife, ‘I’d like to do a show for Christopher,’ and she said that would be great,” Ganz said. “So we ended up getting the show together to help raise some money for the family.”  The Jerry Ganz Band will present the “Christopher Krakowiecki Benefit Show”, proceeds will benefit Christopher and help his parents deal with the monumental costs of the treatment he will be receiving regularly for three-and-a-half years.  www.fundraisingweb.org
