Bauman Family Asking Chelmsford Businesses For Help

The family of Jeff Bauman is asking local businesses for both monetary donations as well as donations of gift baskets to be raffled off at upcoming fundraisers.

In particular, the family is looking for larger, more expensive items such as grills, and flat screen televisions.

For more information on how to donate items, please call Colleen Carragher at 315-383-1960.

Anyone interested in donating money can also mail a check payable to the "Jeffrey Michael Bauman Foundation" to

Jeff Bauman

C/O Jen Joyce-Maybury

P.O. Box 261

Chelmsford,MA 01824

Donations are also being accepted online at www.gofundme.com/bucksforbauman.

Other independent fundraising efforts include a fundraiser today at the workplace of Jeff's mother in Burlington, a May 5 concert at the Village Smokehouse in Lowell and a May 10 fundraiser at the Radisson here in Chelmsford.

Anyone else with a fundraising event is welcome and encouraged to post it on the Chelmsford Patch events page.
