BERWYN, Pa.- On Saturday, April 12 from 8:00AM to noon, the Villanova University softball team will hold a car wash to benefit Peter's Place. The car wash is a $5.00 donation, with all proceeds benefiting Peter's Place.

Peter's Place is a center for grieving children and families, providing a safe outlet for grief and assistance in coming to terms with their loss. Children, teens and parents meet every other week in peer support groups led by experienced professionals and trained volunteers. Peter's Place is a non-profit organization, relying on contributions from families, individuals, organizations, corporations and the community to cover the monthly cost for each child or teen.

When Peter's Place opened two years ago, Villanova softball shopped and purchased necessary items for the grand opening.
