A new organization to Butler had a fundraiser event Thursday with the goal of raising money to make a big purchase.
Isaiah 117 is looking to buy a home in Butler for children who are being prepared to put in foster care. Kathryn Bushre is part of the core team in raising the funds for a house.
But although the house will be in the Butler community it will even serve children from all over the area.
“Anything that encompasses Butler County, including children who may be coming into Butler County that are going to be placed into a foster family that may have come from Allegheny or Mercer County,” Bushre said. “It’s definitely far reaching.”
