Rascal Flatts Wins Humanitarian Award

Last night at the Academy of Country Music Awards Rascall Flatts was honored with the ACMA/Home Depot Humanitarian Award.  The band is a major supporter of the Monroe Carrel Jr. Children’s Hospital in Nashville to whom have donated over $2.2 million dollars from their hometown shows.  They also put on an annual Disney-themed concert for the patients and families there at the hospital.  In addition to their work at the hospital the guys are also involved in the Make A Wish Foundation and The Red Cross Celebrity Cabinet. 

As the recipients of the award Rascal Flatts will be able to have a playground built in the city of their choice by Home Depot and the non-profit company KaBOOM!  The band was also recognized last night as the Top Vocal Group for the sixth time in a row.  Its refreshing to see people who are at the top of their game using their platform to help others and make a difference in their communities.  Well done guys!
