NASHVILLE, Tenn.- For the
final day of CMA Fest several country
stars contributed some prized possessions on the auction block.
Big Kenny along with NewsChannel
5's Chris Cannon led the 29th annual YWCA Celebrity Auction. Items like signed
guitars from Keith Urban all the way to the original hand-written lyrics for
Charlie Daniels' "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" were on sale.
The money goes to support
the YWCA's Weaver Domestic Violence Center. Organizers say having the auction
during CMA Fest not only helps them raise a lot of money, but they say it
raises awareness as well because there is a national audience.
Last
year the Weaver Center took in almost 400 women and children who needed
immediate safety from a domestic violence situation.
