The Cash Scanlon Phillips Foundation Presents the 10th Annual Concert For Cash
The Cash Scanlon Phillips Foundation announces the tenth annual Concert for Cash ($50/ticket) at The Denver Field House (1600 N Federal BLVD Denver 80204) at 6pm on Friday, January 26, 2018, featuring The Hazel Miller Band and Bluegrass band Odessa Rose. Now in its tenth year, the event also features a Live and silent auction of items that range from sports equipment and memorabilia, to wine, art, vacation trips, and professional services from around the Denver metro area (donations for the auction still being accepted thru Jan. 22th).
So, what's the reason for the high-energy, Beautiful Dance party?
Put simply: To keep on keepin' on. In May 2007, Tess and Page Phillips lost their tiny son to an incurable, degenerative disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) just five months after he was born. Though devastated, the couple refused to crumble, embarking instead on a constant quest to live every moment in tribute to their son, Cash Phillips. By January of 2008, joined by a fervent following of family and friends who called themselves "Team Cash," the couple had managed to launch the first ever Concert for Cash. It was a concert that would both honor their son and benefit The Children's Hospital to build a Healing garden . Which is now used daily by patients, parents, nurses and doctors at Children's.
That was nearly 10 years ago, and in the time since, this event has not only ensured that the $80,000 garden got built, but also has gone on to raise additional funds for The Children's Hospital, including funding for its Bereavement Program and the International Adoption Clinic at Children's. This year, the Cash Scanlon Philips Fund, now a 501(c)(3), but still known as Team Cash to its longtime friends, sets its sights on raising money for local adopting families and CureSMA to help other SMA families.
