Carrie’s C.A.T.S. Foundation
ACM Lifting Lives® November theme for its monthly “My Cause” web feature is “Hometown Heroes.” The web feature, which launched in August, will continue to drive awareness of artist-supported charitable organizations and support fundraising efforts for those philanthropies.
At the ACM Awards last April, ACM Lifting Lives converted the traditional artist gift lounge into a space where artists could give back to an organization of their choice, instead of receiving gifts themselves. In this lounge, artists stopped by to give a direct-to-camera message about their favorite charities. These videos can now be seen as part of the My Cause web feature on ACMLiftingLives.org, with new monthly features grouping artists and causes by theme.
This month, “My Cause: Hometown Heroes” features causes near and dear to artists’ hearts, from serving their hometowns to honoring the legacy of a loved one. Donations can be made to each charity using a donate link available with each video. Below are the artists and causes included in the November “Hometown Heroes” feature.
November: “Hometown Heroes”
· Danny Gokey – Sophia’s Heart
· Reba McEntire – Reba Ranch House
· Carrie Underwood – C.A.T.S. Foundation
· Darryl Worley – Darryl Worley Foundation
To watch the November My Cause videos and donate to these causes, please visit ACMLiftingLives.org. A new My Cause theme including more artists and charities will be announced in December.

Carrie To Star In The New Film “Soul Surfer”
SOUL SURFER is the true story of competitive teen surfer Bethany Hamilton, who lost her arm in a shark attack and courageously overcame all odds to become a champion again, inspiring millions worldwide through her sheer determination and unwavering faith. Coming to theaters nationwide on April 15, 2011, this exciting feature film stars Dennis Quaid, Helen Hunt, AnnaSophia Robb, and Carrie Underwood in her film debut. The cast also includes Lorraine Nicholson, Kevin Sorbo and Jeremy Sumpter.
The first film to be released under the new deal between FilmDistrict and Sony Pictures, SOUL SURFER will go out as a wide release via TriStar Pictures with a broad-based and integrated marketing campaign managed by FilmDistrict.
The film was independently financed by Enticing Entertainment and Island Film Group, and is a production of Mandalay Vision, Brookwell McNamara Entertainment and Life’s A Beach Entertainment. North American and substantial International rights were acquired prior to the commencement of production by the Affirm Films division of Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions.
The film was directed by Sean McNamara from a screenplay by McNamara, Michael Berk, Douglas Schwartz, and Deborah Bonann Schwartz, with additional writing by Ron Bass, Jen Smolka and Kara Holden, and is based on Bethany Hamilton’s memoir “Soul Surfer: A True Story of Faith, Family and Fighting to Get Back on the Board.”
“My family and I are honored to be the subject of such an amazing film,” says Bethany Hamilton. “My hope is that the story continues to inspire people around the world to overcome the challenges that face them.”
The film was produced by David Zelon, Douglas Schwartz, David Brookwell, Sean McNamara and Roy “Dutch” Hofstetter and executive produced by David Tice and Dominic Ianno, and shot on location in Hawaii.
“The world needs a hero right now,” says primary financier and executive producer David Tice. “When I met Bethany and her family, I felt compelled to share her extraordinary life on the big screen.”
“Steve Bersch and I immediately responded to the honesty of Bethany’s story and its universal message of courage and perseverance,” says Peter Schlessel, CEO of FilmDistrict, who initiated and approved the production with Bersch while at Sony, and then forged the partnership between Sony and the newly formed FilmDistrict for release of the film.
“SOUL SURFER embodies an absolutely amazing story, wonderfully told by the filmmakers, and we’re thrilled to play a part in bringing this story to audiences this spring,” says Bersch, President, Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions.
“This movie, with its winning story and cast, is a real audience pleaser,” said Bob Berney, President, Theatrical Distribution, FilmDistrict. “It’s the perfect family film for the spring break season.”

Carrie Co-Writes & Records Title Song For “The Chronicles Of Narnia”!
Multi-Platinum Grammy Winner’s “There’s A Place for Us” to Debut this Month
Multi-platinum selling recording artist, songwriter, and 5-time Grammy winner Carrie Underwood has recorded the end title song, “There’s a Place for Us,” for the holiday motion picture event THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER in theaters December 10th.
Underwood agreed to co-write (with David Hodges and Hillary Lindsey) and record the song, produced by her famed, multi-platinum producer Mark Bright, after the filmmakers screened for them a rough cut of the picture.
Underwood commented: “I’m a big fan of the ‘Narnia’ books and films, so I was really excited about seeing this new movie and writing and performing a song for it. I was blown away by the film, and I think people are going to be really excited when they see it. It’s the perfect holiday film.
“THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER presents an imaginative world that’s also relatable because it’s easy to connect the characters and themes to our own lives,” Underwood continues. “The land of Narnia represents a place where the young heroes truly belong. That inspired me to get together with David and Hillary and write ‘There’s a Place for Us,’ which says that for everybody, there’s a place where you’re powerful and where you belong. The movie and song are about finding that place where you fit in.”
“There’s a Place for Us” will receive major broadcast and online debuts this month, and will be available for purchase exclusively at iTunes on November 16th.
International cover versions of Underwood’s song will be recorded overseas in a small number of select countries, broadening the impact of this worldwide release.
Return to the hope and wonder of C.S. Lewis’ beloved world – via the fantastic Narnian ship, the Dawn Treader, in THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER. In this holiday motion picture event, Edmund and Lucy Pevensie, along with their cousin Eustace, are swallowed into a painting and on to the magnificent ship the Dawn Treader. They join King Caspian and a warrior mouse named Reepicheep for a mission on which rests the fate of Narnia itself. The courageous voyagers overcome their greatest temptations, as they travel to mysterious islands and a pool that turns anything it touches into gold; have fateful confrontations with magical creatures and sinister enemies; and reunite with their friend and protector, the “Great Lion” Aslan.
