NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Journey Home Project, founded in 2014, sees its mission as aiding those organizations that have proven to be the most valid and effective when it comes to meeting veterans’ needs. Co-founded by Country Music Hall of Fame member Charlie Daniels and his longtime manager David Corlew, The Journey Home Project has provided assistance to The Boot Campaign, Task Force Tagger Foundation, Operation Stand Down, The Shepherds Men, Sentinels of Freedom Scholarship Foundation, as well as funded the Middle Tennessee State University’s Veterans and Military Family Center— now named the Charlie and Hazel Daniels Veterans and Military Family Center.
David Corlew, a longtime supporter of our nation’s military, has produced the documentary “The Journey Home: A Soldier’s Story” defining the mission that Charlie Daniels had been on for years supporting causes for veterans long before TJHP was established. In addition, Corlew produced the DVD “Charlie Daniels Band Live in Iraq,” where he had traveled seven times as well as Afghanistan twice. Thanksgiving 2005 brought Daniels and Corlew to Iraq as part of Operation Heartstrings, where they dropped 100 guitars, courtesy of Gibson CEO Henry Juskiewicz, into the hands of soldiers that were musically inclined, however, weren’t able to travel with their personal guitars.
Corlew will appear on Fox Business Network’s Varney & Company, SiriusXM’s Patriot Channel, and Fox News Radio on September 11thto discuss The Journey Home Project.
