Potts Doggie Shop, 2428 Cherryville Road, will hold a fundraiser Jan. 12 to benefit the Schneider family, whose daughter Kylie died recently at the young age of just 16 months.

The business hours are 11 a.m.-7 p.m. One hundred percent of the sales will be given to the family.

Mark and Bob Mazziotta, owners of Potts, have a longstanding tradition of helping those with medical issues. Their benefits were created after their sister, Marie Annette, was diagnosed with breast cancer. They held fundraisers for her until her death, then decided to continue this worthy cause.

Wishing you all a happy and healthy New Year!
