Jeff Foxworthy to perform in comedy benefit for Africa

Jeff Foxworthy will take the stage at 7:30 p.m., April 14, at the Smoky Mountain Center for the Performing Arts as part of a benefit for Compassion International, a Christian-based organization that advocates for children in more than 26 countries. The benefit will raise money for the children in Africa.

Foxworthy has been nominated for multiple Grammy Awards, is a best-selling author of 11 books, a TV and radio host, and an actor. His comedy act explores the humor of everyday family interactions and human nature.

All proceeds from Foxworthy’s performance will go to Compassion’s WASH Initiative, which aims to reduce waterborne diseases that kill more young children than AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria combined. Tickets start at $39 each.
