Five-year-old Hayden Cullimore needs a liver transplant. Even with good insurance, his family has been told to prepare to pay up to $200,000 out of pocket. To “Help Hayden Heal,” his family has organized a benefit concert on July 19 at 7:00 p.m. at the Layton Amphitheatre. The concert will feature the local Utah famed trio Mercy River, nationally acclaimed Broadway tenor Dallyn Bayles (Phantom of the Opera), Jessie Clark Funk and recent organ transplant recipient and award-winning pianist Paul Cardall.
Doors open at 6:00 p.m. for the silent auction featuring rare collectible Utah Jazz memorabilia, including autographed shoes from Kyle Korver and Andrei Kirilenko. There will be many unique and affordable gifts from local boutiques and much more. Ticket donations start at $15.00 or $50.00 for a family of up to five. All proceeds go to helping Hayden heal.
Obviously, stories like this just break your heart- especially when you think of it happening to your own child.
My goal with doing this Giveaway is to SPREAD THE WORD about the Concert and Silent Auction. People will be able to attend a great event, and Hayden can get the money he needs to get his Liver Transplant. The event has been in the papers and on the news, but we need more people to know about it.
So, here is the Giveaway:

How sad and so close to home. My brother had a liver transplant in Aug. 09. He then faced a bone marrow transplant but was denied the procedure by his insurance. He passed away 3 weeks ago. I will pray for Hayden!I blogged about this on my family blog.
