A fundraiser to support families in Kenya was a success on Monday night in Vernal. Live music centered around the piano composition skills of Jill Boyd who entertained the crowd with on the spot compositions using random number combinations from the impressed crowd. Jewelry, baked goods, and hats were among the items for sale to support the cause of helping families in Kenya become self reliant. The concert ended with a dance led by special guest Moses, a Maasai warrior from Kenya. The event raised enough funds to sponsor at least 1 family in Kenya through the 100 Humanitarians organization. The family will be provided with a cow, goat, 5 chickens, 3 garden boxes, 10 trees and hygiene kits. The effort is aimed at “teaching people to fish and not just handing them the fish.” 100 Humanitarians member Kaci McNeel says the event exceeded her dreams. “I am so proud of our community and the big hearts they have,” shares McNeel. “To help those less fortunate when the Basin is suffering from the oil crunch is just faith building!” Learn more about the cause at
