To “Help Hayden Heal,” his family has organized a some fundraising events including a 5K walk and run on July 17 and 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.

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.
