“Area foster children to benefit from charity toy drive and concert featuring Sara Evans”
The Christmas for Kids Concert, which will be held Thursday, December 16 at Johnny and June’s Ultra Saloon in Winston-Salem, N.C., will benefit area foster children through Foster Friends of NC and the Kevin Harvick Foundation. The toys collected will be distributed to the foster children at a private holiday party at Oak Ridge Military Academy in Oak Ridge, N.C. on Saturday, December 18.
“DeLana and I are really excited about the Christmas for Kids Concert,” said KHF co-founder Kevin Harvick. “We have partnered with 93.1 The Wolf to support foster children in both Guilford and Forsyth Counties through Foster Friends of NC and the Kevin Harvick Foundation. The holidays can be hard and we hope, that through this program, these kids will know there are many people that care about them. We are expecting a great turnout for the concert and are looking forward to collecting a lot of toys and donations.”
Doors open at 8:30 p.m. and admission to the event is a $20.00 new, unwrapped toy or cash donation. Go to www.fosterfriendsnc.org to see a detailed wish list of items needed. Johnny and June’s Ultra Saloon is located at 2105 Peters Creek Pkwy, Winston-Salem, N.C. 27127.
