Tracy Lawrence receives Country Radio Seminar Humanitarian Award

 The Country Radio Broadcasters Association has named Foreman, Arkansas native and country music star Tracy Lawrence as the recipient of the 2023 Country Radio Seminar Humanitarian Award. In a statement, the C.R.S. Awards Committee said that we commend Tracy for his deep and personal commitment to his causes. Tracy’s contributions go far beyond simply lending his name or influence. He has devoted his personal time, talents, and resources over a significant period of years. The results of his initiatives have improved lives in his community. 
   Lawrence was selected for his strong level of personal commitment in his efforts toward addressing multiple aspects of homelessness, including his “Mission: Possible” platform that has raised more than $2 million. Lawrence also returned to his hometown of Foreman annually in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s for a benefit concert that raised thousands of dollars for local charitable projects. During the benefit concert run, he brought numerous other country stars with him to perform in Foreman such as Kenny Chesney, Tracy Byrd, and more. 
   The C.R.B. Artist Humanitarian Award was created in 1990, and honors a country artist whose philanthropic efforts have significantly improved the effectiveness and impact of the causes they support. The award will be presented to Tracy at this year’s Country Radio Seminar in Nashville, Tennessee next month.
