“Lipton was already working with Lady Antebellum on an exciting new campaign to spread positivity and bring fans together when we were introduced to the community of Henryville,” said Heather MacNeil, Lipton. "We were moved by the community’s sense of unity and in the spirit of “Drink Positive,” we immediately jumped on board to support the rebuild effort."
The Henryville project originated as part of Lady Antebellum’s contest offering their fans the chance to win a prom performance. After reviewing numerous submissions, the band chose Henryville for their inspiring story following extensive tornado damage.
Lipton and Lady Antebellum encourage people to show their support for Henryville and make a donation by visiting www.rebuildinghenryville.com. Tickets for the “Rebuilding Henryville” performance at the KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Ky. are also available at Ticketmaster.com. All donations and concert proceeds will go to the New Hope/Indiana Bankers Association for the Disaster Relief Fund.
