Grammy Nominee Kelsea Ballerini Helps CMA Foundation Launch 'Music Makes Us' Program

How cute does Kelsea Ballerini‘s hair look? It’s so much shorter and we are loving it!

The Best New Artist Grammy Nominee stepped out for the CMA Foundation’s Announcement Event in Nashville, Tenn., this week, which marked a One Million dollar donation to the Metro Nashville public schools ‘Music makes us’ program.

The $1 million grant will support initiatives aimed at strengthening music education programs and music teacher support in classrooms across the city.

“I think it is so important to give kids the opportunity to learn what they are passionate about,” Kelsea shares about the donation.

“When I was in middle and high school I took as many chorus and theater classes as I could, and I use the tools I learned then in my career today!”
