Last Chance: Val's Pals Gift to Benefit Glenn Lightner

Days are winding down to enter raffle.

Just one of many local businesses trying to help support the Lightner family, whose oldest son, Glenn, is battling brain cancer, Val's Pals Pet Service is winding down its raffle fundraiser for the Long Valley teen.

Val Lieberman, owner of Val's Pals, created a raffle that would give a $100 pet sitting gift certificate to a lucky winner. Those who donated to Glenn Lightner's Give Forward page, mentioning Val's Pals, were automatically entered into the drawing.

For every $10 donated to the website, one raffle ticket was entered, Lieberman said.
