All 5 living ex-presidents to attend storm relief concert

摘要

The five living former presidents will host a concert at Texas A&M University on Oct. 21 to raise money for the areas devastated by the recent spate of hurricanes. The event was announced by the George H.W. Presidential Library, which is located on the campus. Former Presidents Carter, George H.W. Bush, Clinton, George W. Bush and Obama will attend. "This event was President Bush 41's idea," David Jones, CEO of the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library Foundation, said in a statement. "What was originally scheduled to be a celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Bush Library and Foundation and Bush School of Government and Public Service quickly became an opportunity to raise money for hurricane relief following Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria." The presidents recently launched an effort called One America Appeal that aims to raise money for rebuilding costs after Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria.
