STEVE WILKOS SHOW HELPING HOMELESS
On Saturday October 13, Steve Wilkos star of the new Steve Wilkos Show, will host a fundraiser for the Gehring family in Moberley Missouri. A 24-year old mother with 2 small children (ages 3 and 4). The family had been living in a tent in a state park in Moberley for 5 months and couldn't keep up the $5 camp fee. Last month the family was offered to move into a church campsite temporarily, that offer is up next week. Their 'new' house will be available within the next week, but before they can move in they need to raise their electric bill (past due and present) and start up bills, which after the community's outreach and donations is still over $1,000. Steve will raise this money and also ask for household donations for the family to furnish their new home. The 2 small children have birthdays at the end of October and will receive a swing set for their new backyard from Steve. We will have a moving truck on site to load up any and all donations and drive her to their new home. The location will be the center of downtown Moberley. Police and Firemen will block off a street where Steve will serve Chicago style, hot dogs and lemonade for a donation to the family. There will be a local band from the University of Rock (all under the age of 16) that has a draw of 200 plus. This week, we will be contacting every business in the area to make a donation and help in any way possible. The street fair/festival will take place from 11am-1pm. It will be at the center of downtown Moberley in the parking lot of the Municipal Auditorium at Rollins and Clark. Steve will also participate in a pie eating contest and a rub Steve's head booth. There will also be a moon walk and a sidewalk chalk drawing contest (draw Steve's head). All efforts are to raise money for this family.
