A spring craft show will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at White Oak Volunteer Fire Co. No. 1, 1130 California Ave., a spokeswoman said.
More than 50 vendors are scheduled to participate, including dealers for Tupperware, Lularoe, Thirty-One, Pampered Chef, Tastefully Simple, Younique and many other companies.
Other vendors scheduled to participate include MB Letters, Creative Creations by Carol B., Kara's 100 Percent Soy Candles and Melts, Jordan Grace Co., Whaley's Wood Working, Cold Nose Bakery and The Chosen Wand.
In addition to gifts and hand-painted crafts, jewelry, pet toys, holiday decorations and body scrubs and balms will be sold, along with baked goods.
The craft show is part of an effort to raise $5,000 before April 14 on behalf of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, said Mary Shelly, a senior at McKeesport Area High School who is organizing the event as part of the group's 2018 Students of the Year campaign.
Proceeds from table reservations, a 50/50 raffle, a Chinese auction and refreshments will benefit the society, Shelly said.
