PLATINUM-certified, GRAMMY-nominated artist and songwriter Anne Wilson (who gave us the song "My Jesus") raised over $100,000 through a headline benefit concert at Corbin Arena in Kentucky to support tornado recovery efforts across Eastern Kentucky. 

The event was presented by Rural King, America's largest privately owned farm and home retailer. Funds benefited both The Sheppard Family Foundation, the region-wide Appalachian Tornado Relief Fund, and the Upper Cumberland Community Foundation.

In May 2025, a deadly tornado struck Eastern Kentucky, and as a Lexington, Ky native, Wilson felt called to respond with hope and help through music.

 “As a Kentucky girl, this one hit close to home,” shared Wilson. “I'm overwhelmed by God's grace and the generosity He stirred in people's hearts last night. Whether you bought a ticket, prayed over this event or simply showed up to worship together – thank you. These communities are still healing, but I know God is moving, and I pray this brings them one step closer to feeling whole again.”

The singer just wrapped a two-weekend run on Morgan Wallen's I'm The Problem Tour and was recently honored with two new career milestones: two billion career streams and an RIAA Gold certification for fan-favorite single “Sunday Sermons.”
