Let's help out Marlinton, WV!

Marlinton, WV was just hit by a devastating fire. My show this Friday has now taken on a whole other purpose. As a touring artist, I am who I am because of the communities that have supported my career. It's time to give back in a very localized way :

  • $1000 Bucks! That's what I'm donating from my show fee.
  • Match my donation: You can give any amount, even $1 helps!

This a golden opportunity

This show has been on the books all year! Who new we'd have the chance to help in such an essential way?

  • I've set a high funding ceiling for this 3 day campaign. I know my audience cares as much as I do. Let's show off a bit!
  • The money will directly support the efforts of the Marlinton Volunteer Firefighters. They did the dirty and expensive work of containing the fire. Now the community needs our financial support to get stabilized.

Make an Impact

Marlinton is a mountain town that just doesn't have the resources that many of us rely on in our bigger cities. However, through this brief campaign you, your family and friends can do a very good deed.

Other Ways You Can Help

If contributing through this campaign isn't in your budget or style there's other ways you can be involved:

  • Post this effort on your Facebook and Twitter pages.
  • Send out some emails with your own connection to the cause. Maybe that's music!

I'm so grateful for your support and for taking the time consider this campaign.

Let's help out our neighbors!
