Sams story
Sam Bruns was recently hospitalized at the Mayo Clinic after her health rapidly declined due to a rare chromosomal disorder. She remains there and they continue testing to find more answers.
She is the daughter of Lee & Donna Bruns. They have been taking turns being with her and being home in Watertown to care for their other children. This has caused a financial strain on the entire family with gas, food, lodging expenses and missing work.
Sam is active in Special Olympics and a creative artist. She has had a booth at WMCo since day one, offering a wide variety of her crafts.
Here's how you can help! Stop in and purchase something from Sams booth. Then either keep the items or donate them back to sell to the next person. If we can sell half of everything in her booth at WMCo by this Sunday, we will donate $250 to the family. If we sell her booth out completely we will donate $500!

🍋 🧁 Also on Friday July 17th from 11am to 6pm we will have Sams Lemonade and Bake Sale right in front of our store. Ice cold fresh squeezed lemonade & sweet treats for a freewill donation. 🍋 🧁

Please like and share this post to spread the word and show the Bruns family how our community comes together in a time of need.
