The Grand Ole Opry, a music venue in Nashville, Tennessee, has started a charitable campaign to donate funds to struggling local musicians during the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n
The Grand Ole Opry, which has hosted country music for nearly 95 years while hosting 4,918th consecutive Saturday night broadcasts, will launch #UNBROKEN, a charitable campaign to raise money for the MusiCares COVID-19 Relief Fund. The fund benefits artists and musicians impacted by business closures in the city.<\/p>\n
Opry fans will have the opportunity to contribute to the fund while watching by television, radio, or digitally.<\/p>\n
Each week, the shows air live on Circle Television, Dish Network, Facebook, and YouTube, among other applications and websites.<\/p>\n
