Fundraiser planned for Skillings

A gathering for Joseph Skillings, the Ballard teacher recovering from an attack at a Capitol Hill bus stop, will be held this Sunday afternoon. “Bring your checkbook to make a donation, or bid on one of the silent auction items,” explains the invitation. “All funds collected will be used to make sure Joseph is taken care of during his road back.” The gathering will be held at the Steve Jenson gallery, 1424 10th Ave., beginning at 3:30 p.m. While many of Skillings students would probably like to attend, organizers ask that the gathering be limited to adults. If you’d like more information, please email Will Anderson at the address listed on Skilling’s CaringBridge page here.
