ACM Lifting Lives

ACM LIFTING LIVES, the philanthropic arm of the ACADEMY OF COUNTRY MUSIC, has donated a total of $250,000 to be distributed among three organizations that assisted those affected by the recent LAS VEGAS mass shooting during the ROUTE 91 HARVEST FESTIVAL. MGM RESORTS FOUNDATION's VICTIM RELIEF & FIRST RESPONDERS' FUND, which is intended to help the VEGAS community heal and recover, will receive $200,000; THE NATIONAL COMPASSION FUND will be given $25,000 to go directly to the victims; and FRIENDS OF LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE FOUNDATION will receive $25,000 in support of the first responders, victims, and their families as they cope with the aftermath. Anyone who wishes to make their own contribution to MGM RESORTS FOUNDATION, THE NATIONAL COMPASSION FUND, and FRIENDS OF LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE FOUNDATION can do so here, here, and here, respectively.

"This money will go a long way in aiding the healing and recovery of people who so desperately need it,” said ACM CEO PETE FISHER. "Our sizable contribution to the MGM RESORTS FOUNDATION not only will aid victims, but will send a very special sentiment to our long-time partners in VEGAS."
