Tracy Lawrence Gears Up for 14th Annual Thanksgiving Turkey Fry to Benefit Nashville Homeless

by Jim Casey | @TheJimCasey | October 21, 2019

Tracy Lawrence will host his 14th annual Mission Possible Turkey Fry at the Nashville Rescue Mission on Nov. 26.

Over the years, Tracy’s team has raised more than $500,000 for the homeless and hungry in Nashville, Dallas and Louisville by serving more than 84,000 meals. Proceeds from this year’s event will benefit the Nashville Rescue Mission.

“The annual Mission Possible Turkey Fry is my favorite time of the year,” says Tracy. “Being able to bring awareness and raise money to Nashville Rescue Mission is such an honor. As the homeless population grows in our country, it’s important that we continue to work toward understanding all of the different situations that lead people down the path of homelessness. Rescue Mission is such an important part of our Nashville community and I look forward to working with them for many more years.”

In addition, Tracy will once again host the Mission Possible Charity Concert on Nov. 26 at Nashville’s Wildhorse Saloon. This year’s concert will feature performances from Tracy, Justin Moore, Rhett Akins, Clay Walker and Halfway to Hazard.
