The Billy Ray Cyrus Foundation benefits CASA, Hope’s Place, Huntington and Ironton city missions. Huntington Ronald McDonald House and Toys for Tots, among other charities.

Entertainment will be provided by Salyers and friends Joshua Scott Jones and Meghan Linsey of Steel Magnolias, the group that recently won the CMT show “Can You Duet.” The group has signed a record deal with Big Machine Records.

Host of the event is WSAZ news reporter Randy Yohe. Chairman and chairwoman are Brent and Stephanie Clark.
