Fairport, N.Y. – A fundraiser was held for Mackenzie Murphy on Sunday to help raise money for the Brain Injury Association of New York State.
Murphy is a teenager who survived a stroke about a year ago. The funds raised at the tournament on Sunday were in her honor and were donated to the charity.
“She [Mackenzie] wanted to raise money for Brain Injury Association. They come into schools and other organizations to help students and teachers better understand brain injury” said Christine Lasher, Murphy’s mom.
