Although this year’s edition of Vicksburg Porchfest saw a few inches of rain, the event also saw handsome proceeds that will directly benefit local organizations.
The Fostoria Neighborhood Association recently announced it had raised $7,500 during Porchfest 2022. The proceeds will benefit six charitable organizations that help people in Vicksburg and Warren County.
The benefactors are: Jammin’ for the Kids, Haven House, Rainbow Farms, the Cannonball Swim Program, Kings Empowerment Center and the Vicksburg-Warren Humane Society.
The Porchfest Planning Committee wishes to extend thanks to all attendees, sponsors and vendors that made this donation possible.
