Making dreams come true.
According to WATE News6, Morgan Wallen has donated $15,000 in the form of a grant from his foundation, the Morgan Wallen Foundation, in order to send 35 children from underserved communities to a camp with specialized music and arts instruction.
The Salvation Army Knoxville shared the news on Instagram, confirming that the $15,000 grant will fully cover the cost for 35 kids to attend Camp Paradise Valley this July, which is a camp and conference center owned and operated by the Salvation Army Kentucky and Tennessee Divisional Headquarters.
“BIG NEWS! Thanks to a generous $15,000 grant from the Morgan Wallen Foundation, 35 local kids will get to experience the magic of Camp Paradise Valley this summer — completely free of charge!
They’ll enjoy a week filled with fun, friendship, and specialized music & arts education, all while building confidence and lifelong memories. We’re beyond grateful to the Morgan Wallen Foundation for investing in the future of our youth here in East Tennessee.”
Major Cameron Henderson, Area Commander of The Salvation Army Knoxville Area Command, says they are “incredibly grateful” to Morgan and his foundation for investing in East Tennessee and helping provide these opportunities for underserved children who might never experience something like this otherwise:
“We are incredibly grateful to the Morgan Wallen Foundation for investing in the lives of young people in our region. For many of these children, this will be their first time attending camp and exploring music and the arts in such a hands-on way. It’s more than a week away—it’s a chance to discover their talents, build confidence, and just be kids.”
It’s great to see Morgan using his platform and love for music to help bring a love of music to the next generation, and it’s certainly not the first time they’ve made big investments in the lives of those in his hometown and area. Of course, music is a life-changing thing, and it’s certainly going to be a week to remember for these kids who have a passion for music to have an outlet like this to learn so much more about it and hone their skills.
The Foundation has done a lot of good for Morgan’s home state and causes that are near and dear to his heart, and in 2023, Morgan made a $35,000 donation to his alma mater’s music and baseball programs, and the next year, they gave $140,000 to renovate the Gibbs Youth Sports facilities. Last fall in the wake of Hurricane Helene which devastated east Tennessee and Western North Carolina, Morgan gave a whopping $500,000 to the Red Cross to help with recovery efforts.
