Hunter Hayes to Perform Charity Concert for Child Hunger Relief in Burley, Idaho
Hunter Hayes to Headline Charity Concert in Burley
Grammy-nominated country music sensation, Hunter Hayes, will grace the stage in Burley, Idaho this September for a meaningful charity concert titled 'United We Stand to End Child Hunger'. This powerful event, set to take place on Friday, September 13, aims to raise funds and awareness to combat child hunger across South Central Idaho. A significant portion of the ticket sales will directly contribute to providing thousands of meals for local children in need.
Hayes, who has captivated audiences worldwide with over 2 billion on-demand streams of his music, has established himself as a formidable force in the country music scene. With six gold and platinum singles, fans can look forward to a dynamic and memorable evening as he brings his multi-instrumental talents to the forefront. Having toured alongside some of the biggest names in music like Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood, Hayes’ live performances are renowned for their energy and emotional connection with the audience.
The concert is not merely a night of entertainment; it serves as a vital call to action. According to the United Way of South Central Idaho, nearly half of the families they reach struggle financially, placing countless children at risk of going to bed hungry. "It's staggering to learn about this major issue in our community. The statistics are appalling," Hayes expressed. He emphasized his belief in the transformative power of music when paired with charitable actions, stating that even small contributions can help reshape the narrative of local children's lives.
In the words of Kara Fort, the President and CEO of United Way of South Central Idaho, "This concert is a lifeline for kids. We are thrilled to welcome Hunter to our community and rally together for those who need support the most." The goal is to unite the Magic Valley community under a common cause: to combat child hunger and ensure that no child goes without food.
The 'United We Stand to End Child Hunger' concert will take place at the Cassia County Fairgrounds, located at 1101 Elba Avenue in Burley. Concert doors will open at 5 PM, with the live performance starting at 6:30 PM. Hayes is expected to take the stage at 8 PM to deliver his heartwarming and high-energy performance, which includes both hit songs and unique arrangements showcasing his instrumental skills. Attendees can look forward to an array of local food trucks and VIP experiences that enhance the concert atmosphere.
