Hi, we're excited to start this GoFundMe campaign to support the Irish Arts Foundation's (IAF) fundraising for the Taylor Brothers Memorial. IAF is dedicated to promoting the rich tapestry of traditional Irish performing arts, fostering community awareness, and providing educational opportunities.

We are raising funds to honor the memories of William and Charles Taylor, who changed the course of the design of the Uilleann Pipes (Irish Bagpipes). They emigrated to America from Drogheda, Ireland and spent much of their American lives working in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This is where they did their innovative work as pipe makers, and ultimately where they died. They are buried in a pauper's grave in the Old Cathedral Cemetery.

This project is to memorialize the Taylor Brothers with a tombstone. All donations are tax deductible and 100% of the donations will go to providing a memorial at their gravesite.

Please consider contributing to this worthy cause. Your support will help keep our cultural traditions alive and accessible for everyone. Thank you!
