A guitar autographed by the four country music singers will also be auctioned off. Proceeds will benefit Project Rebuild, an organization that builds homes for Oklahomans in need. The first annual Raindance festival, organized last May after wildfires spread across Oklahoma in 2005 and 2006, raised $133,000 for Project Rebuild. Founder Sharilyn Young said that was enough for Project Rebuild to build six homes. "When I saw how some of my Oklahoma neighbors were so deeply affected by natural disasters, I felt I had to do something," Shelton, 30, said. "Raindance is a good fit for me. I enjoy all the events and, hopefully, so do a lot of other people." |
