Long Beach, CA - When
Jenny Ly ended her engagement to her boyfriend of five years, she was left with
a $5,000 wedding venue contract, which she was unable to get out of. The 25-year-old full-time student from Long
Beach didn't want the money to go to waste, so she decided to put the Clubhouse
of the La Mirada Country Club in Santa Fe Springs to good use: by holding a
fundraiser for cancer. "I could
have just cried myself to sleep every night," Ly said, "But I'm
trying to turn this bad situation into something else." The fundraiser will feature
comedian acts, raffles, dancing and a buffet dinner. All the proceeds will go
to Relay for Life, said Nancy Whitney, a spokeswoman for the organization. www.fundraising-ideas.org Sunday, August 14, 2016
