OK Kids Korral Toby Keith Foundation Auction

I had the honor of hosting the 21st annual OK Kids Korral event, and before one auction item was sold, we raised $150,000.
I opened the night with a $10K donation from the Hagar Family Foundation and asked the sold-out crowd, “Anybody out there wanna match that to get this party started?”

The first hand went up offering $25K, then Trish Keith (Toby’s amazing wife) jumped in with another $25K… and it took off from there.

I had an absolute blast and would do it again in a heartbeat. Toby would’ve done that and more for me any day. In fact, back in 2017 while filming Rock & Roll Road Trip, he took me to the OK Kids Corral. I was so inspired, I pledged my support on the spot.

When Trish asked me to host and perform this year, there was no question. I dropped everything to be there. It was a beautiful, heart-and-soul kind of night—and his family knows I’m all in.

We raised over $1 million and that’s gonna help a lot of families staying at the kids korral.
Let’s keep this thing going forever. For Toby. For the kids. 💛🎶
