Open Air Market for Jax!

The Zelienople Rotary Club is planning a HUGE Main Street takeover—all to support Jax Ramirez, a brave local child fighting a rare, life-threatening autoimmune disease called IPEX.
Why This Matters
Jax was part of a clinical trial and it was going really well. Due to government funding cuts, his treatment was stopped.
To continue these life-saving treatments, Jax and his family must raise $2,000,000.
What’s Happening
Main Street will transform into a January Open-Air Market (on a Tuesday), bringing our community together for an unforgettable cause:
• Partial proceeds and profits from the participating Main Street businesses will go directly to Jax and his family.
• Shopping, food, drinks, raffle baskets, and experiences
• Media coverage expected
• Members of the Pittsburgh Penguins planning to attend
