Fundraiser for child set at Alley 64

ST. CHARLES – Owen Payton, 6, has been waiting for the better part of a year for a lifesaving heart transplant.

A fundraiser is planned tonight at Alley 64 in St. Charles to help the Payton family of West Chicago pay for medical expenses. Volunteers have been hosting benefits for the family within the last year with hopes of raising $60,000.

The cost of an organ transplant can cost as much as $500,000, according to the Children’s Organ Transplant Association.
