Bar Talk Happy Hour
Saturday, October 5, 2024 - 9 minutes
In this week’s episode, we’re shining a light on a heartwarming story of compassion from country music superstar Miranda Lambert. Along with her MuttNation Foundation, Lambert is stepping up in a big way to provide relief to areas devastated by Hurricane Helene. She’s launched a special fundraiser through the MuttNation Relief for Rescues Fund, with 100% of donations going directly to support animal shelters affected by the storm in Tennessee, Florida, North Carolina, and Georgia. Already contributing nearly $100,000 of her own, Lambert highlighted the critical situation in these overcrowded shelters, emphasizing the heroic efforts of those helping animals in need.
We’ll also touch on how other country stars, like Luke Combs and Morgan Wallen, are joining the cause. Wallen’s massive $500,000 donation to the American Red Cross shows how the country music community is rallying together to support not just the people, but also the pets affected by the storm.
It’s a powerful reminder of the bond between country music and community, and how artists like Lambert, Combs, and Wallen are using their platforms to make a difference during tough times. Grab a drink, sit back, and join us as we dive into this inspiring story!
