BASKET RAFFLE FUN!
After great success in 2020 and 2021, the Basket Raffle is once again online! This is a great opportunity for you to share the raffle link with family and friends who cannot attend the Birthday Bash at Sunnybrook on August 20.
Baskets will also be on view at the 70's/80's Night (Birthday Bash) and winners will be announced that evening.
Gift certificates will be mailed and we will coordinate getting prizes to our local winners.
Best part-- Most raffles are only $1 a chance and there are NO FEES!
Purchase as little or as many as you want without being charged additional costs.

Lace up your shoes between August 20-27, throw on an old Jk5k race shirt (or anything bright!) take a photo and tag us on Facebook @JK5krun (and use the check-in feature too if you wish!)
Donations are optional, but above is the link! Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you!
About Jacob
The JK Birthday Bash will be held in memory of Jacob Karnchanaphati,who passed away in July of 2015. Jacob was 12 years old and a 6th grader at New Hanover Elementary. He was greatly looking forward to entering his first year at Boyertown Junior High East. This fundraiser benefits students of Boyertown Area Senior High who plan to further their education. All proceeds directly fund the Jacob Karnchanaphati Memorial Trust. To date, the scholarship fund has assisted 40 Boyertown area students and their families.
Jacob will forever be remembered for his love of soccer and nick name, "JK". He was a one of kind kid, who had his own style, and wasn't afraid to "tell it like it is", which made him so funny.
One of the most treasured memories that Jacob has left us with is the laughter he brought to everyone around him. He is greatly loved and missed by all of his family and friends, and will remain in the hearts of all of those who were lucky enough to know him.
This year, we will host a Birthday Bash on Saturday, August 20, 2022 to honor Jacob, as we remember his smile and celebrate his life on his birthday.
This fundraiser benefits students of Boyertown Area Senior High who plan to further their education, All proceeds directly fund the Jacob Karnchanaphati Memorial Award, so that we can continue to help students every year.
The Jacob Karnchanaphati Memorial Trust is a 501 (c)(3) organization.
