Story

Pete McAvoy #4Herk, was a well known 22 year old boy from Dundee, he was living his dream in America at Herkimer College, he was studying & doing a Soccer Scholarship, just as his two year term was coming to an end, he sadly slipped away on 19th April 2014 in the States. His Family & many friends here in Scotland and America are planning on raising £4444.23 in his memory ... the number 4 is significant because this was Pete's Soccer Jersey number that he wore and was well known for, and the .23p at the end would have been his age on the fundraising target date 17th August. If you can't make any of the fundraising events being scheduled from 4th to the 6th July, don't worry, by donating on this page and adding your name, everybody will see you how generous you have been, any amount can be donated, it's the thought that counts!  #4Herk Y.N.W.A.
