Brantley Gilbert Donates $10.5 Million Worth Of Books

Said Gilbert: “Bendon’s books include Batman, Superman, Clifford The Dog, Disney, Peanuts and My Little Pony, as well as coloring books, sticker books – and even Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn. It’s the kind of gift that’s both fun and helps kids learn, and I’m honored the folks at Bendon understood why I wanted to work with them for this donation to Toys for Tots. For some children, this may be most of or all the Christmas they’ll have this year, and this gift helps them grow as well as play.”

Gilbert is known for his philanthropy, having previously donated to servicemen and women causes.

This is the largest donation the kid’s charity has ever received and Gilbert took to Instagram to share his thanks to Bendon for allowing him to make so many children’s Christmases that little bit better.
