Benton, KY (February 6, 2024) – The Miracle League of Western Kentucky is thrilled to announce the fundraising total for the 2nd annual Miracle Gala, benefitting the Miracle League of Western Kentucky, $123,832.
The event had over 380 guests in attendance for this formal event and included a dinner, silent auction, live auction, raffle and more. The highest selling item of the night was $20,000 for a bottle of Woodford Reserve engraved with “Miracle Gala 2024”.
