 ABOUT COUNTRY FOR KIDS
The Center offers three distinct programs: Behavioral Health Services, Consumer Credit Counseling Services and Child & Family Connection (located in Williamsburg). The Center is funded in part by: Donations, United Way, Fees for Services, Foundation Grants and State & Local Government Funding and Special Events (such as Country for Kids). We are very grateful to have our sponsors (listed at the bottom of the page) without their help and dedication to the Center--we would not be able to hold such a wonderful event. 

Country for Kids is now in its 8th year (13th show) and we have been privileged to have some of the hottest stars in country music perform; such as, Keith Urban, Jo Dee Messina, Gary Allan, Tracy Lawrence, Phil Vassar, Chris Cagle, Emerson Drive, Jessica Andrews, Andy Griggs and Eagle 97's own The Ill-Eagles. Through the generosity of corporate sponsors and ticket-buyers, we have been able to raise over $315,000 in net proceeds over the past seven years. These funds have help support our much needed programs--which in turn has helped thousands of our local neighbors access our services.

Country for Kids 2008 presented by GTI Systems will feature Tracy Lawrence, with special guests, 97.3’s Ill-Eagles. Tracy Lawrence kicked off our “Country for Kids” concert series back in 2000 and was a huge hit then! Tracy Lawrence has had a number of hits including; “Can’t break it to my heart”, “My second Home”, “If the Good Die Young”, “Time Marches On”, and his current hit, “Find out Who Your Friends Are”, just to name a few. He is a passionate performer who puts on an exhilarating show!   Click here for his Music Samples
ABOUT TRACY LAWRENCE
Tracy Lawrence has been very active with the non-profit community supporting other causes such as the Alzheimer’s Association, St. Jude’s and CASA, amongst many others. This being said, we are extremely excited to have Tracy come and support his passion of helping people by performing for all of the great fans here in the Hampton Roads and surrounding areas! 

You can help support our agency by purchasing a VIP or General Admission Ticket to the Tracy Lawrence show, which will take place on Saturday, April 12th, 2008 at the Little Creek Naval Amphibious Base. We look forward to seeing you all there!

SPECIAL THANKS
We also want to send a special thank you to Chris Cagle for putting on amazing shows the past few years for us. His love for country music really comes out in every song he sings. The Center has received overwhelming e-mails praising how great he performs each time! He has been a blessing in raising money for our charity and we thank him & all the loyal fans he has for coming to see him perform at our “Country for Kids” shows. Chris helped us raise over $80,000 the past few years. His generosity to the Center for Child & Family Services is much appreciated.
