Country Music Stars Headline #FarmON Benefit Concert Supporting 4-H
Lee Brice, Martina McBride, Jennifer Nettles, Rodney Atkins, Justin Moore and other stars share their support for young people during this challenging time
Viewers tuning into Farm Journal’s #FarmON™ Benefit Concert at 7 p.m. CT on Thursday, Aug. 27, not only will hear some of today’s top voices in country music, but they will also have the opportunity to show their support for 4-H and the millions of young people who have been impacted by COVID-19. Donations from this benefit concert will go to National 4-H Council’s FOURWARD Fund, which provides all kids with the resources, tools and sense of belonging to learn and grow during these unprecedented times.
“COVID-19 is creating a world of uncertainty, and it’s affecting millions of kids across the country who don’t have reliable access to internet at a time when virtual learning is key,” said Jennifer Nettles, Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and 4-H’s national spokeswoman. “Just like 4-H helped me growing up, 4-H is continuing to make a difference in the lives of young people everywhere by providing the resources and sense of community that they need to thrive, no matter their circumstances.”
The hour-long virtual concert features an all-star lineup of country music artists including Lee Brice, Martina McBride, Justin Moore, Rodney Atkins, the Peterson Farm Brothers, High Valley, Caroline Jones, 4-H’s performing arts group Clovers & Co. and a special message from 4-H alumnae and spokeswoman Jennifer Nettles.
