INKOM -  An Inkom family is finding themselves overwhelmed with bills as they're treating their 8-month-old baby for cancer.

Little Skyelar has already undergone three surgeries, all of which requires money to get them down to Salt Lake City.

The baby is undergoing chemotherapy and needs to go once again on Monday.

On Friday night, the family is hosting a fundraiser at Inkom Elementary School.

Not only is there a spaghetti dinner, but also 275 items are up to buy in a silent auction.

The money raised will go to the family, a single mother who's still in school and needs to support her child.

"It's just really stressful. You worry about your baby and you just want everything to be ok. Not many people know this little girl, but she's amazing," said Britney Edmonds, Skylear's Mother.

The fundraiser runs from 6 pm until 9 pm. The family is hoping they'll get as lots of community support.
