A local non-profit agency's capital campaign received some big help, Tuesday afternoon.

Scotty's House was the recipient of an $18,000 check.

The money was collected from the proceeds from this year's Armadillo Dash, held in March.

Race officials were excited to contribute such a significant amount of money, after the success of the their first race.

Officials say Scotty's House has been able to generate nearly $900,000 cumulatively toward their capital campaign.

Scotty's House is working to raise $1.6 million dollars to fund the creation of a new facility.
