BIRTHDAY

Olivia Andersen Benefit What’s in a smile? For Matthew and Amber Andersen a smile embodies their hopes and dreams for their first born child. Just weeks before their daughter was born the doctors alerted the Andersens that the child showed signs of a cleft lip and perhaps a cleft palette. Emotions ran high in this young family as questions plagued their plans for this perfect little family. Hanging on to the joy this child would bring, Matthew and Amber anxiously awaited her arrival.

A benefit is being held to help with the ongoing medical expenses incurred for Olivia’s continued care on Nov. 1, 2014, from 4 to 7 p.m. in Rake, Iowa, at the fire station. The event offers a baked potato bar, walking tacos, beverage, and a dessert for a free will offering. Also included is a silent auction with something for everyone, an original art show, and a bake sale. Come see for yourself the value of a smile. Olivia will greet you.

THANK YOU Thank You
