The Key Event

Eighteen years ago a group of caring people in our area came together to raise funds for The American Cancer Society. Led by Patti Alderson and Debbie Boehner, the event raised thousands of dollars and became what is known today as the Key Event. Their vision was to provide a venue to bring the community together for an evening of fun and raise money to help those in need at the same time. Today, the Key Event raises more than $150,000 hosting 550 guests. The money raised at the Key Event allows the Foundation to fulfill its mission of facilitating charitable dollars through its grants to nonprofit organizations serving our community.

Save the Date for the 19th Annual Key Event. The 2012 event will to be held on Saturday, September 15th at the Savannah Center in West Chester.  The event will feature a silent and live auction, basket raffle, live auction raffle and much, much more. Upon arrival, guests will randomly pick a key that opens a miniature door to reveal  their dining location -  one of the 25 host homes in the West Chester/Liberty area. Each home will feature a talented chef who will prepare a wonderful meal for each attendee. After dinner, all guests are invited to an after-party featuring at the home of the Foundation's Board Chair Patti Alderson and her husband Dick.
