More than a week after Private Jessica Lynch was rescued in Iraq, money, college scholarships and gifts continue to pour in.

Everything from trips to Hawaii and Hungary, flowers, new cars and money have been offered to the 19-year-old Army supply clerk.

The state has even agreed to foot the bill for a party when she returns home to Palestine, West Virginia. Lynch was rescued April 1 from a hospital in Nasiriyah by U.S. commandos. She's now recuperating from several injuries at a military hospital in Germany.

Wirt County Assessor Debbie Hennen has coordinated several fund-raisers for Lynch and her family since March 23, when news came that her 507th Maintenance Company had been attacked in southern Iraq.

Hennen established a bank account, which now contains more than $4000.

Various fund-raising events, from car washes to pig roasts, have raised another $4900 and a local Wal-Mart has pledged $1000.
