“The fact that I’m able to pair that with a cause that’s near and dear to my heart like Mercy House I come in and play when I’m in town so I get to meet a lot of the residents and their families so this is just a great way to combine both,” Tezza said.
Executive Director Linda Cerra explained that the funds from this event will go towards covering expenses for patients staying at the Mercy House.
“We currently host three annual fundraisers, our golf our gala and our Mothers’s Day Tea, so we decided let’s add another one at an outdoor venue have some music and raise money to offset the expenses for caring for the terminally ill,” said Cerra.
