Some of country music’s biggest stars—including Jason Aldean, Dierks Bentley, Sam Hunt, Lady Antebellum, Little Big Town, Martina McBride, Reba McEntire, Jon Pardi, Chris Stapleton, George Strait and Keith Urban—took part in a benefit concert last night (Nov. 12) to support those affected by the Las Vegas shooting on Oct. 1 and the recent hurricanes.

The star-studded lineup performed at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena as part of the Country Rising benefit. The funds raised via Country Rising will benefit the Country Rising Fund of the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee, which was established to support charitable initiatives to help victims of the September 2017 hurricanes. Additionally, the funds will now also support victims of the shooting in Las Vegas on Oct. 1.

Donations are still being accepted. You can support the cause by texting “NASHVILLE” to 41010 to make a $10 donation or by visiting CountryRising.org.
