A hamburger dinner and family auction raise money for SMA.

The Michigan Chapter of FSMA held its 6th Annual Flippin’ for a Cure Hamburger Dinner on November 6, 2009 at the VFW hall in Portland. We had a great attendance for the fundraiser. We served 450 hamburger dinners and raffled off nearly 100 prizes. Everyone enjoyed the entertainment and said that they would be back again next year. We raised approximately $4,000.

 Also, the extended Spitzley Family of Westphalia, Michigan held an auction at the annual family Christmas party in December. They raised $450 for Spinal Muscular Atrophy in honor of Mallory Armbrustmacher, Great-Grand-Daughter of Mary Spitzley.
