Country music superstar Carrie Underwood and her retired NHL star husband Mike Fisher recently co-hosted a special benefit event which raised over $500,000 for Danita’s Children to help provide for children in Haiti.
“At Danita’s Children, we provide a safe haven for abandoned and vulnerable children, while encouraging families to stay together through our education and malnutrition programs. We follow God’s call to rescue, love, and care for orphans and impoverished children. We believe that when we do, we are following Christ’s commandment and are acting as His hands and feet. It is not just the responsibility of those who are called to full-time ministry to be concerned, but it is the responsibility of all believers and Christ followers,” the organization’s website explains.
Mike currently serves on the Board of Directors and the couple have been involved with the cause for multiple years. As you can see from the photos below, country star Brad Paisley was also at the gala providing entertainment alongside Underwood!
“We are AMAZED at the generosity of each person who attended our 2018 Gala hosted by @mfisher1212 and @CarrieUnderwood this year! Thank you both so much for your dedication and support! We are grateful to God and all who attended this wonderful evening!” Danita’s Children shared via Instagram.
What a wonderful way to give back to some very deserving children!

“Love Wins” Lyrics
A stray bullet and a momma cries
Her baby won’t be coming home tonight
Sirens screaming down the avenue
Just another story on the evening news, oh woah
Politics and prejudice
How the hell it’d ever come to this
When everybody’s gotta pick a side
It don’t matter if you’re wrong or right, no, and so it goes
But I hold onto hope and I won’t let go cause
I, I believe you and me are sisters and brothers
And I, I believe we’re made to be here for each other
And we’ll never fall if we walk hand in hand
Put a world that seems broken together again
Yeah I, I believe in the end love wins
Sometimes it takes a lot of faith
To keep believing there will come a day
When the tears and the sadness, the pain and the hate
The struggle, this madness, will all fade away, yeah
I, I believe you and me are sisters and brothers
And I, I believe we’re made to be here for each other
And we’ll never fall if we walk hand in hand
Put a world that seems broken together again
Yeah I, I believe in the end love wins
Love is power, love is a smile
Love reaches out, love is the remedy
Love is the answer, love’s an open door
Love is the only thing worth fighting for, yeah
I, I believe you and me are sisters and brothers
And I, I believe we’re made to be here for each other
And we’ll never fall if we walk hand in hand
Put a world that seems broken together again
Yeah I, I believe in the end love wins
Oh yeah, love wins
Love will, love can, love still, love wins
Love will, love can, love still, love wins
