A fundraiser has been set up for an Oceanport family that recently lost its 10-week-old son. 

The Rhodes family had to say goodbye to their son, Wyatt, following heart surgery earlier this month.

The community has decided to help the family by holding a fundraiser at Enzo's Pizza at 281 E. Main St., Oceanport, on Wednesday Oct. 23. En

The fundraiser will be held from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., during which time, 100 percent of the dining proceeds will go to the Rhodes family.

Those who wish to learn more about the evening can contact the restaurant at 732-542-5010.

An anonymous donor has also pledged to match the pizzeria's donation to the Rhodes family following the fundraiser.
