With foster care/adoption awareness serving as the first issue to address, “Music That Matters: Project 50 Files” is a soon-to-be-released CD/DVD combo aiming to eliminate the classification of being “files” from children in need of adoption, by reminding the world that they are much more than a simple manila folder tucked in a drawer—they are unique, loving children longing for a home. The title song on “50 Files” is a beautiful ballad which personifies the importance of this mission by sharing the perspective of a child "living in a file". The associated video will have one child from each state serve as a representative for the cause. "Music That Matters: 50 Files" features songs from many of your favorite artists who have been touched by foster care/adoption or have played a role in its advocacy. Among the artists confirmed are Reba McEntire, Lee Ann Womack, Mark McGuinn, Steven Curtis Chapman, Dolly Parton, and several other well-known names in the industry.
