Charlie Daniels Helps Journey Home Project Dinner Raise Over $100K

(Webster) Charlie Daniels' co-founded non-profit, The Journey Home Project, hosted their annual dinner at The Palm Restaurant in Nashville on September 13th.

The event, emceed by SiriusXM's Storme Warren, raised over $100,000 with proceeds going to returning veterans and furthering awareness of the issues they face when they return home from serving the United States of America.

The program included American heroes, Mark "Oz" Geist and John "Tig" Tiegen, Buck Taylor of "Tombstone" and "Gunsmoke" fame, a performance by Ryan Weaver, Marisa Wayne of the John Wayne Foundation, and the man of the hour, celebrating his 80th Birthday, Charlie Daniels. The evening included a renowned live auction, silent auction items, the Palm's signature Surf & Turf dinner and live entertainment.

"The yearly Journey Home Project at the Palm was, at least for me, the best yet. Raised a lot of money, had a lot of fun and made a lot of friends," said Charlie Daniels.

"Thanks to our remarkably supportive sponsors, friends and guests, we have set a fundraising record for our organization while having an entertaining and fun evening. The Journey Home Project continues to be able to serve our veterans and returning servicemen and women thanks to the continued support through events like this, Volunteer Jam and more throughout the year," said Mercedez Longever, The Journey Home Project Board Member.
