(Nashville, TN)- Multi-platinum group 3 DOORS DOWN recently held
their 4th annual "The Better Life Foundation" Concert
at the Hard Rock Casino & Hotel in Biloxi, MS with musical
friends, Sara Evans and Musik Mafia members Jon Nicholson, Big
Kenny (of Big & Rich), Shannon Lawson & Randy Hauser, and
raised over $200,000 to benefit children's charities along the
Gulf Coast area.
"To be able to be a part of 'The Better Life Foundation,'
is truly a privilege for me," said band member Matt Roberts. "Over
the past four years the foundation has been able to touch the lives
of many along the Gulf Coast, my life included. I've truly learned
what it means to give back to the community that has given so much
to us. The annual benefit concert has been a great success and
a joy to be a part of. This has simply been because of the people
who have come out to support each year and enable us to continue
to reach the goal of helping others."
The mission of The Better Life Foundation is all encompassing,
to make positive changes in the lives of children, whether that
be food, shelter or medical assistance to name a few. Each and
every year the foundation works to raise funds to donate to various
organizations and hospitals they believe will help them further
this cause.
3 Doors Down is widely known as one of the most successful rock
bands in modern day history with more than 18 million albums sold
to date and six #1 singles to their credit. Known for such hits
as "Kryptonite," "When I'm Gone" and "Here
Without You", their style and sound are uniquely artistic
and captivating. Stay tuned for their new album in spring of 2008!
