Fundraiser Thursday for local muscular dystrophy victim

Menifee 24/7 has reported on the fundraising efforts for 8-year-old Billy Ojeda, who has muscular dystrophy. The family is in need of a wheelchair accessible van, and several community members are trying to help.

The next event is Thursday at Richie's Diner in Murrieta. Print or show this flier at the restaurant between 5-8 p.m. and 20 percent of your bill will be donated to the JETT Foundation for the van.

NBC Channel 4's Patrick Healy featured Billy's family and the support the community is providing on the 11 p.m. news Sunday night. Here is a link to the story and video on their website:
