Casey Donahew Uses Concert dates to Fill The Tailer for Hurricane Harvey Relief Efforts
Nashville, TN (August 30, 2017)
– Lone Star son and Texas native, Casey Donahew, is using his live show
as a means to help assist in relief to victims of Hurricane Harvey.
Labeled as one of our nation’s worst disasters and the most significant
storm to ever hit the U.S .coast, Hurricane Harvey has left a wake of
destruction in its historically large path.
Donahew
and his wife Melinda sprang into action this week upon seeing the first
video and hearing news reports of the damage caused by the storm
knowing that they had to do something to help. Hear Casey’s own words here.
“Texans
are proud people, and we help our own, but we are not too proud to ask
others for help when we need it. That’s why I’m asking my fans and
anyone else who wants to donate to please do so. We have a large cargo
trailer that we are pulling to our shows this week and we are asking
people to help us fill it up with items like; diapers, baby wipes, baby
formula, body soaps, deodorant, and hygiene packs. These are
suggestions, we are not going to turn away anything non-perishable that
anyone wants to donate,” says Donahew.
Casey will be collecting at his shows this week in the following markets:
August 30 – Dallas, TX – The Rustic (The Rustic is also giving a $10 ticket discount for anyone who donates at least 2 items)
August 31 – Clinton, AR – National Championship Chuck Wagon Races
September 1 – Lubbock, TX – Charley B’s
September 2 – Belton, TX – Central Texas State Fair
