Country superstar Luke Combs recently addressed concerns from a fan about the allocation of funds raised during the Concert for Carolina. The event, held in October, featured Luke and Eric Church raising over $24 million to support those impacted by Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina.
Despite the success of the event, a fan on social media questioned where the relief money had gone, mentioning that some people were still sleeping in tents. Luke didn’t shy away from clarifying. He responded, explaining, “The portion of proceeds that I raised were split evenly between Manna Food Bank in Buncombe County, Second Harvest Food Bank of Watauga County, Samaritan’s Purse, and Eblen Charities. All hyper-local 501c3 charities originating and operating in WNC.”
