Fundraiser set in Westchester to help find Silah children
Every time I get another update on this case, it amazes me that the national media has blown it off. I just don't get it. 
Three kids are missing with men who might take them out of the country. Their mothers haven't seen them since June.
Anyway, the Westchester Lutheran Church choirs -- kids and adults -- will perform Thursday at the school to raise money to help search for the boys.
Students Alex and Zaven Silah, and their cousin, Greg, have not been heard from since their fathers, George and John Silah, failed to return them to their mothers following summer custody visitations. Both men have been charged with kidnapping.
In addition to student and adult choirs, Alex's seventh grade classmates will perform a song in his honor.
Alex and Zaven's mother, Zanni Meguerian, will speak during the program. A representative of the Association for the Recovery of Children also will address the case.
The fundraiser will begin at 7 p.m. at the school at 7831 S. Sepulveda Blvd.
Donations also can be sent to the school office, made payable to ARC with the designation of "Silah Boys."
Contact the school office at 310-670-5422 for more information.
The FBI and Los Angeles police department are investigating the case. A reward has been offered for information leading to the boys return and the Silahs arrests.
