Thrilled to bike and perform for a cause, three-time RIAA Gold selling recording artist Jeremy Camp recently participated in the third annual Dierks Bentley “Miles & Music for Kids.” The proceeds were raised for the Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital in Nashville, TN.

The celebrity motorcycle ride and concert was held this past Sunday, October 5th. The participants biked from scenic Williamson County through downtown Nashville, ending at Riverfront Park with jam session, which featured event founder Dierks Bentley in addition to Camp, Tim McGraw and other country artists. In the two previous years, “Miles & Music for Kids” raised more than $250,000 for Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital.

About Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital:

Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital is the most comprehensive Children’s Hospital in the state, providing services from cancer treatments, organ and bone marrow transplants to broken legs and everything in between. Vanderbilt Children’s is a non-profit teaching and research hospital, and relies on the support of individuals and others to help children get well and on their way.

About the Speak Up, Speak Now, Speak Loud Campaign:

“It’s an agenda without an agenda. The Speak Up comes from Paul saying, ‘I didn’t come to you with persuasive words, the Holy Spirit did the work.’ It’s not about what you can do on your own power. God just wants us to spend time with Him and have a willing heart. Speak Now comes from the urgency of the scary times we live in. Lastly, Speak Loud challenges us to hear loud this declaration from out across the nations where people are crying out. It’s not about volume, it’s about the substance behind what we’re saying.”
