Muskogee High School held the fundraiser at the school’s football game Friday night. The crowd was there to fill the stands, but also to fill buckets to donations.
Boulet’s face was mauled by the dogs when he tried to keep them away from a child in his neighborhood.
“I love it. I love it. I offered to pay for me and my family and they said, ‘No, you don’t have to pay for nothing,’” Boulet said.
FOX23 spoke with the Boulet family in July and they said they were facing large medical bills from not only the immediate trauma, but what is expected to be years of recovery and surgery.
“I’m not mad. I just want the owners of the dogs to man up and apologize to me,” Boulet said.

The students at Irving Elementary School consider Boulet a hero and felt compelled to help him because someone their age was saved from the attack while Boulet took the hit.
“The kids actually decide who they want to help. There were three nominations and they felt that Mr. Boulet needed the help the most,” said Community Education Coordinator for Muskogee School Teresa Little.
Students collected money through halftime and will give 100 percent to the Boulet family.
