"It's truly humbling to be awarded the Angels Among Us honor by
St. Jude," said Old Dominion’s Matthew Ramsey. "The patients and
families of St. Jude inspire us deeply. By uniting with fellow
artists and Country radio fans, we want to help make sure that no
family receives a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing
or food so they can focus on helping their child live. Supporting
such a remarkable mission is a privilege, and we are thankful to be
part of it."
Old Dominion has dedicated many years to supporting St. Jude,
first attending its annual Country Cares Seminar in 2016 after
signing to RCA Records Nashville. The band has since participated
in seven #ThisShirtSavesLives campaigns, played the Bobby Bones
Million Dollar Show, lent their songs to support fundraising,
performed at numerous fundraising events and spent time with
patients.
The band will receive its award at the 35th annual Country Cares
Seminar, a yearly gathering of music artists and industry
professionals who lend their voice and platform to raise funds and
awareness for St. Jude. This year's celebration takes place Oct. 21
- 22 at the historic Peabody Hotel in Memphis. 4x ACM Award nominee
Jon Pardi will kick off the two-day event with a performance at the
famed Graceland. Multi-platinum singer-songwriter and St. Jude
supporter Megan Moroney will help close out the event with a
performance at the Angels Among Us dinner, followed by Old
Dominion’s set, which will include a special duet with Alabama
frontman and Country Cares founder, Randy Owen.

ABOUT ST. JUDE:
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is leading the way the
world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other
life-threatening diseases. Its purpose is clear: Finding cures.
Saving children.® It is the only National Cancer
Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center devoted solely to
children. When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was
largely considered incurable. Since then, St. Jude has helped push
the overall survival rate from 20% to more than 80%, and it won't
stop until no child dies from cancer. St. Jude shares the
breakthroughs it makes to help doctors and researchers at local
hospitals and cancer centers around the world improve the quality
of treatment and care for even more children. Because of generous
donors, families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment,
travel, housing or food, so they can focus on helping their child
live. Visit St. Jude Inspire to discover powerful St. Jude stories
of hope, strength, love and kindness. Support the St. Jude mission
by donating at stjude.org, liking St. Jude on Facebook, following
St. Jude on X, Instagram, LinkedIn and TikTok, and subscribing to
its YouTube channel.
