Jason Aldean will host his eighth annual Concert for the Cure in New Orleans later this month. All proceeds from the October 25 concert will go the New Orleans Susan G. Komen Affiliate for breast cancer research and outreach programs. The funds that Aldean hopes to raise are in great need for the Komen Affiliate.
"Last year, the Komen New Orleans team needed a little over $1 million to meet all their needs, but they were only able to fund about half of that," Aldean said.
"If we raise the half a million that we did last year in Dallas, we'll be able to help these women meet their goal and provide the services the town needs. I can't wait to see an arena full of pink in support of such a great cause," the country singer added.
Aldean has also committed 50 cents of each of his concert tickets sold throughout the year to the cause.
