Country singer-songwriter Jason Aldean has been doing what he can to support the fight against breast cancer for over a decade. Each year, the Georgia native puts on his “Concert for the Cure” and this year he hit a big milestone— surpassing $3.6 million raised.
This year, the popular entertainer Jason Aldean brought his annual “Concert For The Cure” to his recent They Don’t Know Tour stop at Louisville, Kentucky’s KFC YUM Center with special guests Chris Young, Kane Brown and Dee Jay Silver in tow.
The speical night highlighted Aldean’s longstanding partnership with Susan G. Komen, as he donated a portion from all ticket sales garnered throughout the year to Komen Kentucky. Since the inaugural event in 2004, Aldean’s efforts have raised more than $3.6 million to benefit Susan G. Komen chapters across the country.
“These women and their families are fighters,” shared Aldean in a statement. “We’ve been having them backstage every night for the last couple years now and I’ve heard their stories first-hand. We’re going to keep fighting with them until there’s no more breast cancer.”
