Community lifts up local Seahawks fan by sending him to game via fundraiser; he then donates Excess portion of proceeds to local food banks

TL;DR

EPHRATA - Dustin Ehinger of Ephrata is a beloved member of the community, so much so that his community sent him to see his treasured Seattle Seahawks battle the Arizona Cardinals at Lumen Field on Nov 21.A GoFundMe was set up several weeks ago by Dustin’s best friend’s mother, Debbie Henderson, after Dustin, who’s autistic, was subjected to unsavory behavior by a Safeway customer who had hurt Dustin's feelings.Feeling Dustin’s pain, Henderson reached out to the local community via GoFundMe and asked that enough money be raised to send Dustin to his ‘happy place’ at Lumen Field to see his Seahawks play.Dustin even crossed paths with one of the Seattle Seahawks' biggest super fans, Margy Wick who also lives in Ephrata.A couple of weeks after his fantastic voyage, Dustin decided to donate a portion of the remainder of his GoFundMe proceeds, to the tune of $500, to the Ephrata and Soap Lake food banks."
