“Before we all continue on with our hectic lives, it’s important to stop and reflect on the fact that freedom is not free. We are so grateful to Charlie Daniels, his team, all of the phenomenal artists who donated their time and talent, and fans who came out to support The Journey Home Project,” said Mercedez Longever, managing director of The Journey Home project.
“It was good to see an old Tennessee Tradition come back to life, all for this great cause,” Daniels said.
