Evans L. "Buddy" King Provides Medbrook Children's Charity Gift for its Ongoing "25 for 25" Legacy Fund

By Connect-Bridgeport Staff on August 23, 2025

A quarter century ago, Medbrook Children’s Charity was founded to help benefit local underprivileged children in Harrison and surrounding counties. Thanks to amazing community support the charity has been able to raise more than $2 million to assist kids in need.
 
Sadly, the need continues.
 
The board of Medbrook Children’s Charity understands the work the charity does is critical and must outlive all members of the board.  With that need in mind, the board of directors initiated the Children’s Champion Legacy Fund and launched “The 25 for 25” campaign.  The goal is to attract donors at a level of $ 25,000 to help fund the charity to perpetuity.
 
In the days and weeks ahead, Connect-Bridgeport will highlight those who have contributed to the campaign.
 
This video HERE introduces the campaign and covers some of the highlights of the charity’s work.
 
Editor's Note: Photos shows Evans L. "Buddy" King, left, and Medbrook Children's Charity President Dr. Kelly Nelson.
