    "After we met with the amazing staff at Soles4Souls in Nashville we knew that this was the perfect charity for us," said the Corey Brooks Band. Corey added, "Before it was even official I found myself telling people about the stats and how they could get involved. Soles4Souls is all about serving others. You see, that's what Jesus was all about and He expects us to do the same. This partnership is one more way that we can be servants and show Jesus' love to those in need."

    "We are honored that our friends in the Christian music community like the Corey Brooks Band continue to show their support for our organization," said Wayne Elsey, Founder and CEO of Soles4Souls.
