CBS TO RERUN ACM'S OUR COUNTRY

The ACM Lifting Lives COVID-19 Response Fund has raised $1m in the days since the ACM Presents: Our Country special aired Sunday. CBS will rebroadcast the special this Saturday at 8pm.

The ACM Lifting Lives COVID-19 Response Fund began with an initial endowment of $250k, matched $250k in outside support, and is now contributing another $250k due to the need of applicants. More than $500k has been distributed to country music industry professionals who demonstrate immediate financial needs due to COVID-19.

“In less than 48 hours, ACM Lifting Lives was able to send financial support to hundreds of applicants with the ACM Lifting Lives COVID-19 Response Fund at an expedited pace,” said ACM Lifting Lives Executive Director Lyndsay Cruz. “A huge thank you to our generous private corporate donors, partners, and many individual industry leaders for their contributions.”

Besides the special, the ACM Presents: Our Country pre-show can be viewed at ACMOurCountry.com and at ACM’s Facebook page and YouTube channel.
