The benefit concert will be held in honor of the McDougal Family for three of their four children who suffer from Cystic Fibrosis with the oldest son who has developed Aspergillus, which is a respiratory disease. The McDougals need a home that is allergen free. Greg McDougal, the father of the children is a former songwriter for EMI Nashville and was pursuing a record deal. He even had a song recorded by Atlantic Recording artist John Michael Montgomery. Greg soon learned that God had other plans for him that changed his family's life. Greg will be performing after Diane Kay.

Christian Singer-Songwriter and Pro-Life Advocate Diane Kay is a resident of Acworth, Georgia which is a northern suburb of Atlanta. Her new CD "HELP ME DECIDE", produced by Creative Soul Records of Nashville, was released in March of 2007. The album features Diane's original material and is a compilation of 70's style rock, alternative, a little country flair and ballads. The new album is described by CD BABY as "Emotional, real life songs of Christian faith and some rocking praise as well". SOCKSPIDER ALBUM REVIEWS quotes,"Diane Kay's "Help Me Decide" is many things....fragile, deep, Christ-led, intricate, skillfully written, well produced, and soulfully sung; but most importantly, it was meant-to-be".

The title song "Help Me Decide" is Diane's personal testimony of an unplanned pregnancy in her young adult life and how Jesus gave her the strength and courage to give life to her son, despite the great adversity she faced at that time. She hopes to reach many through her music with songs of her faith, hope and love for Jesus Christ. She currently serves as a volunteer counselor at Cobb Pregnancy Services in Marietta, Georgia and is a member of Johnson Ferry Baptist Church also located in Marietta, where she serves in the adult choir as well as a 3rd Grade Choir Director. Diane Kay's music is available in the "i-Tunes" store and can be heard on www.thespiritradio.net.
