U.S. Army Sgt. Adam Keys, of Whitehall Township, who was wounded in Afghanistan in 2010, is greeted by hundreds of community members during a homecoming ceremony back in April.


Adam Keys needs a new home and actor Gary Sinise is helping to build it.

The "Forrest Gump" and "Apollo 13" star and The Lt. Dan Band will perform Aug. 17 at the State Theatre in Easton, organizers announced Tuesday during a news conference at the theater.

Proceeds from the show will go toward the building of a "smart home" for Keys, a U.S. Army sergeant from Whitehall Township who was wounded in 2010 while serving in Afghanistan.

The concert, which will include a performance by tenor Daniel Rodriguez and performance artist Scott LoBaido, is a joint partnership between the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation and the Gary Sinise Foundation.
