It's a big night for country singer Trisha Yearwood. At the CMT Music Awards on April 7, the 59-year-old is set to receive the inaugural June Carter Cash Humanitarian Award in honor of her “kind heart and good deeds.” The award “recognizes an artist, duo/group or industry veteran who demonstrates an exceptional dedication to the community and their fellow artists as Cash did,” states the CMT in an announcement.
“It’s wonderful to write a check for charity, which we do, everybody does that and it’s wonderful,” she told the Austin American-Statesman. “But to actually go work alongside somebody that’s going to live in a house and get dirty. I almost feel guilty sometimes when we leave, because I know they’re thanking us, but we got a lot more out of it than they probably did.
