A fundraiser was held at Latrobe Community Ministries with the goal of restoring the day care.
Along with food sales, around 91 baskets were raffled off.
"That’s a lot of people who donated," said organizer Tracy Nicely. “We had people who were just dropping off 9-10 baskets, and I just can’t thank people enough for that.”
