"Concert For A Cause" is held in April, every year, in Wilkes-Barre, PA. It began in 1999 as "Concert For Karen" and aided the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. In 2003, the show changed its name to "Concert For A Cause," and since that time, it has raised funds for V.I.S.I.O.N., the Children's Service Center, Luzerne County Head Start, The Wyoming Valley Children's Association, The Child Development Council and United Way Autism Programs. Collectively, the 11 shows have now raised more than $176,640 for local charities. The next show is set for April 22, 2010.
