Last weekend, Young hosted his 27th annual Bridge School Benefit Concerts at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. Young organizes the annual acoustic-based shows, which raise funds for the Bridge School, a facility that develops and uses advanced technologies to aid in the instruction of children with disabilities; it was founded in 1986 by Pegi Young and Jim Forderer with help from Dr. Marilyn Buzolich. The first benefit concert, in 1986, raised the money necessary to start the school, which opened in '87.
