“A Night for the Lukens Family” fundraiser will take place Jan. 20 at Valley Forge Casino Resort from 5-9 p.m. The fundraiser will aim to raise $200,000 for the family. All money raised through ticket sales, sponsorships and raffles will go directly to the family.

The Montgomery County Hero Fund, Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office “Wheels of Justice” team, Irish Pub Children’s Foundation and the A-Team are all organizers of the fundraiser. All four groups are organizations dedicated to helping families of law enforcement and military as well as children, writes the staff of The Times Herald.

The Montgomery County Hero Fund, begun in 2012 by Sean and Sharon Cullen in response to the murder of Plymouth Township Police Officer Brad Fox, is a 501(c) (3) organization dedicated to providing immediate and ongoing relief to law enforcement, veterans and other heroes during a time of crisis or following a death.

January’s event will include food from area restaurants, drinks, and performances by Wildflower and Showtime DJ Mike Valyo. Multiple gift baskets will also be raffled off. Special guest appearances are being finalized and will be announced at a later date.

Tickets are $30 for police, firefighters, military and EMS and $50 for the general public. A reserved table of 10 is $450. Tickets can be purchased online at www.montgomerycountyherofund.com. The organizers hope to sell out the event in support of the loss of the family of a fellow Montgomery County law enforcement officer and U.S military veteran.
