Brantley Gilbert teamed up with children’s activity product producer Bendon, Inc. to make an unprecedented $10.5 million donation to the Marine Toys For Tots Foundation this season.
Brantley said, “Growing up in rural Georgia, I know that sometimes Christmas isn’t a time of joy for some kids and our contribution might be all they receive this year so I really wanted our donation to matter. I’m honored the folks and Bendon understood why I wanted to work with them and Toys for Tots. Bendon’s books have some pretty cool heroes and lessons for all ages like Batman, Superman and Clifford the Big Red Dog to Disney, Peanuts and some of my favorites, Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn. Whether a kid is into Barbie or Star Wars, I hope we’ve given a bit of fun and inspiration.”
Brantley has been a constant supporter of the military, and this is just one of the ways in which the singer has given back in 2015.
