Bubbles for Berrys' fundraiser scheduled for Saturday, July 16
A dog-wash fundraiser has been organized to benefit the children of car crash victims, Robin and Joshua Berry.
"Bubbles for Berrys" will take place Saturday, July 16, at Little Matt's, 6213 Edloe St., in the West University neighborhood, from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Volunteers are needed for the dog-washing crew, as well as dirty dogs to be washed.
"I heard that the Berrys' have two dogs," said event organizer Tracy Pesikoff. "I believe that dogs bring hope and smiles, and this family needs all the hopes and smiles they can get."
Pesikoff said she doesn't know the Berry children, Peter, 9, Aaron, 8, and Willa, 6, who were injured in the July 2 car crash that tragically killed their parents; she is, however, friends with their aunt, Simone Berry, who is married to the kid's uncle, Matt Berry, who now has legal custody of Peter, Aaron and Willa.
"So many people in the community feel like they want to do something. This is something I needed to do," said Pesikoff.
The fundraiser gives the opportunity to involve children and adults, she said.
Organizers will bring the supplies. Little Matt's is providing the space and water.
Proceeds will be donated to the Joshua and Robin Berry Children's Trust. For information, contact Pesikoff at 713-294-3312 or tpesikoff@yahoo.com.
