In July, friends and family gathered in Bradford, MA at the home of Renee and Scott Jacobson, daughter and son-in-law of Harvey Freeman, in honor of Harvey's 60th birthday. Hobbie horses purchased at a local toy store were auctioned off, and the high bidders participated in a race for the charity of Harvey's choice, which was PRF. How did the race work? Golf balls were placed in a bucket, numbered 1-7, and picked out one at a time by the audience for each race participant, who advanced according to the number on the ball picked out for their "horse". Freddie Gaynor was the lucky first-place finisher, but PRF was the winner, having received $220 in donations!

Harvey volunteers at the PRF office once a week, stuffing envelopes, counting collection can money, and various other wonderfully needed tasks around the office.
Thank you, Harvey, his friends and family!
