Press Release
Hey all, this is Cliff Harris. Karen Erlandson and I are organizing a benefit for Ann Wade and her parents, Ben Wade and Jenny Risner-Wade. We have known Ann since she was a little girl, and it breaks our hearts to hear that she had to have serious emergency surgery in France while she was representing Albion on the sister-city trip.

Because of this medical emergency, her parents had to go to her overnight, and you can imagine all the unexpected expenses and problems. In addition, she can’t fly home until she heals, which may take weeks and add even more expense to the family. This is an urgent situation, and we need your help to support the Wades during this difficult time.
The Wades, a family with multi-generational roots in Albion, have poured their hearts into rebuilding our beloved town. Their contributions, though often unnoticed, have significantly improved the quality of life in Albion. Now, it’s our chance to show our gratitude.

We are raising money in several ways. You can attend this planned benefit, enjoy music, and grab dinner if you wish. We will also offer the ability to give money directly to the Wades. Information on that is coming soon. Here are the event details:

Friends and Supporters of Ann, Jenny, and Ben Wade
