Wade Bowen is all set to host his 15th annual "Wade Bowen Classic" celebrity golf tournament, and all proceeds raised this year will go directly to the victims of the fertilizer plant explosion in West, TX. Upon hearing of the tragedy in West, Bowen who hails from nearby Waco knew he had to what he could to help.

"I immediately knew that I wanted to raise as much money as I could to help with the community’s rebuilding efforts,” said Bowen.  “I have many fond memories of West.  It was the town in which I had my first real music gig. I even used to work at a family pizza restaurant there and it is the hometown one of my best friends.  My heart goes out to all affected by the explosion and I want nothing more than to help as many as I can through the Bowen Classic this year.”

Since it's inception, Bowen and The Bowen Family Foundation, have raised close to half a million dollars for various local organizations.
