Bubba’s 33 hosts ‘Raise from the Roof’ event in Yuma

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - Bubba's 33 brought the Yuma community together for its "Raise from the Roof" fundraiser, an event designed to support injured Veterans.

The goal was to raise $5,000 while raising awareness for those who have sacrificed in service to our country.

As part of the event, David Lopez, the restaurant's manager, climbed onto the roof and remained there until the goal was reached.

Despite the extreme summer temperatures, he stayed on the roof for several hours.

"The purpose is to make awareness and raise money, to cover as much as possible the bills of injured Veterans," Lopez shared.

Throughout the day, several members of the community even climbed onto the roof to stand alongside Lopez.
