Pipe organ events help Make-A-Wish
MARION TWP — Two pipe organ concerts will be held Sunday to benefit Make-A-Wish Greater Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
The concerts will be at Blackwood Estate, 118 Blackwood Lane at 2 p.m. and 4:30 p.m.
Ken Double, president and CEO of the American Organ Society, will perform at both concerts and will hold a reception between the shows to meet guests.
Rachel DiThomas, who has coronary artery disease, was granted her wish in October 2013 to meet her favorite actress, Lucy Hale from the hit-show “Pretty Little Liars.” Rachel will speak at the concerts.
Make-A-Wish Greater Pennsylvania and West Virginia is a nonprofit organization that grants wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions.
Benefit concerts have been at Blackwood since 1991. To date, those events have raised $340,000 to help fund wishes in Butler County.
