Riverside Automotive Group has donated a 2022 Mitsubishi Mirage that will be auctioned that evening as part of the benefit.
Ticket purchases are $25.00 and can be purchased HERE or at Copy and Print Warehouse on Neuse Boulevard.

Zach Bellingham is a major lover of his pets and benefit organizers said he hopes soon to be returning to New Bern upon the completion of this stage of his rehabilitation at the Shepherd Medical Center in Atlanta, GA.
Along with the car auction, more than $2,000 in prizes will be raffled off to support Bellingham. Food and beverages will be available for purchase.
