ROCKWELL — A fundraiser for a local man injured in a motorcycle accident will be held in July at the Food Lion parking lot on West Main Street.

The fundraiser is July 11. It starts at 6 a.m. and will run throughout the day. Money from the fundraiser will help pay Socorro’s medical bills. Organizers are hoping to raise $25,000, according to Linda Goodman, a neighbor of Socorro.
Churches, restaurants and Food Lion vendors will all be represented at the restaurant. T-shirts supporting Socorro will be for sale.
