Fundraiser for Layla Rodgerson Raises Thousands in Fredericton

A lunchtime fundraiser at a Mary Brown’s in Fredericton raised over $7,000 for the family of 14-year-old Layla Rodgerson, who died in a car crash on May 5. The restaurant sold more than 1,000 meals and received over 600 pre-orders. Customers waited patiently in a lineup that reached out the door, and staff worked overnight to prepare for the event. The fundraiser was a testament to the community’s support for the Rodgerson family and the legacy of a young girl who was remembered as outgoing, quick-witted, and bubbly.
