Accident Victims' Cousin Raises Money

By: Kristin Anderson
Updated: April 22, 2012
Christine Collaco, cousin of both teens who died in last week's accident, put together a car show benefit.

All proceeds went to the Camacho and Flores families.

The show and silent auction helped raise money for the Camacho and Flores families. Collaco set out to make over $900 in just a few hours to help her family with the unexpected expenses.

"Just to kind of help with funeral expenses and medical bills," she said. "It's just kind of you know, gets the community together, gets the family out here."
