Michael Bolton To Honor Kevin Bacon For Charity Work

Crooner Michael Bolton will show what a little time, love, and tenderness can do when he hosts the 16th annual Michael Bolton Charities Benefit Concert and Celebrity Golf Classic later this month.

Former host of ABC-TV’s “Good Morning America” Joan Lunden will return for her 16th year as Mistress of Ceremonies for the event, which kicks off with a concert on September 21 at the Rich Forum in Stamford. Joining Bolton at the show will be recording legends Dave Mason and Ben E. King, as well as Bolton’s New Haven Choir from NBC’s “Clash of the Choirs.” The following day, Bolton will host the celebrity golf tournament at Stamford’s Rickrimmon Country Club.

The singer will also honor actor Kevin Bacon and Warren Buffett's wife Doris with Michael Bolton Charities Lifetime Achievement awards for philanthropy.

Tickets and more information are available at the Michael Bolton Charities website. All proceeds will go to the Michael Bolton Charities, which was established in 1993 to assist children and women at risk by supporting various programs including the Domestic Violence Hotline, Prevent Child Abuse America, and Kids in Crisis.
