Maddie and Tae Spend the Holidays Helping Children

Country duo Maddie & Tae teamed with the Nashville Predators, the Country Music Association and the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt to encourage the hospital’s young patients, families and their caregivers by doing something many people do after the holiday season anyways — writing letters.
The two bro-country fighting singers helped launch Shine Bright, a letter-writing campaign that encourages members of the community to write notes to the children admitted to the hospital. The campaign will have letter stations set up at various community events through the end of January to make it easy for Middle Tennesseans to write and send letters to the hospital’s patients.
“Writing a letter to provide encouragement to a sick child or express appreciation for their caregivers is a small act, but means so much to the people who receive them. When we can lift up a child who’s struggling, or show someone who works tirelessly how much they matter, that’s a pretty big deal — and the Shine Bright Campaign makes it all the easier to do just that.” -Tae Dye
