Join us for a benefit to help a special little guy from the Peoria area.

Bennett is the son of Sam and Melissa (Sams) Stalter. He was born with CHARGE syndrome, a very complex and rare syndrome, which has greatly affected his vision, hearing, swallowing, and muscular development. Bennett is severely to profoundly deaf in both ears, has coloboma (blindness) of the left eye, and a cleft palate that will be repaired this summer. He will soon be a candidate for cochlear implants, but despite insurance coverage, the procedure will be costly.

All proceeds from this benefit will go towards Bennett's medical expenses and care.
