WASHINGTON, D.C., June 13, 2023 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — The\u00a0nonprofit\u00a0\u201cFaith In Peace\u201d Concert Saturday, June 17, 2023 7:30-10pm<\/a>\u00a0will be held in the Sixth & I Synagogue in Washington, DC\u00a0by the\u00a0Concert for the Human Family (CFHF)<\/a>, with recently announced free ticket offers, says Light4America. The concert benefits multiple nonprofits including\u00a0Rotary District 7620<\/a>\u00a0(Washington, DC and parts of Maryland). The concert will have a strong\u00a0emphasis on promoting shared values like the Rotary \u201cFour Way Test,\u201d Juneteenth\u00a0and\u00a0Pride Month.<\/p>\n

An unlikely friendship of two secular artists drives this musical outreach program of the US Episcopal Church. Kory Caudill is a self-described \u201cAppalachian hillbilly\u201d raised in Kentucky who plays blindingly fast and beautiful piano.<\/p>\n

Anthony \u201cWordsmith\u201d Parker is a Baltimore Hip-Hop artist, State Department cultural Ambassador, and nonprofit leader. Years ago their musical careers combined when they decided to team up to lead the eclectic mix of music that is the CFHF. This non-religious concert series features hip-hop, pop, rock, piano and country with a greater mission \u2013 to unite people of all faiths, races and political beliefs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is music to heal the divisions of America,\u201d says Kory Caudill.<\/p>\n

Rotary was a natural partner for the CFHF. Rotary International has long made promoting peace one of its core focus areas and increasingly has helped Americans promote peace at home, not just abroad. The concert will help tell the story of partner nonprofits like\u00a0Citizen Connect of the Bridge Alliance<\/a> and Rotary clubs. Country First<\/a>, a\u00a0pro-Democracy and pro-civility movement founded by former\u00a0U.S. Representative\u00a0Adam Kinzinger, will help boost the live stream performance.<\/p>\n

The concert will celebrate Rotary District 7620\u2019s first openly gay outgoing District Governor and welcome the district\u2019s first female African American District Governor. The concert will share the story of\u00a0Black\u00a0Georgetown\u00a0Foundation Inc<\/a>, the DC nonprofit that supports the Mt. Zion and Female Union Band Cemetery, an African American cemetery saved from condo construction oblivion.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis truly is a concert series I\u2019ve been working towards since I was four years old,\u201d says Kory Caudill. \u201cI used to watch Yanni – Live at the Acropolis every day and hope that I\u2019d be able to create music like that someday. And now it\u2019s a reality. But on an even deeper level, I hope that this concert series allows me to build a platform to make the world my kids live in a better place. And I believe the message and the music these concerts deliver can do just that.\u201d<\/p>\n
