CMA Fest is not only the longest-running live country music event, it's also one of the biggest fundraisers for the CMA Foundation.

Each year, the festival donates a portion of ticket sales to the organization, which works to further music education across the U.S. With an estimated 95,000 guests coming through the gates this year over the course of four days, CMA Fest is able to present a cheque for more than $2 million. This year's CMA Fest will air in a television special hosted by Cody Johnson and Ashley McBryde on June 26th.
