NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Brad Paisley and his team put on a night of stand-up comedy to fundraise for The Store, collecting more than $500,000 in donations.
The night — Groceries with Dignity & Comedy Without — featured a full slate of comedians, but it also included our own Lelan Statom.
You can watch that in the player below.
The Paisley family — Brad and his wife, Kimberly — founded The Store to provide those in need with free groceries and allow their customers select what they need for their individual families.

Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.
Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.
Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
