Country music sensation Miranda Lambert received a generous donation to her charity during the final stretch of her Velvet Rodeo Las Vegas residency show.
Miranda Lambert Receives Large Charity Donation
Before taking the stage for her performance on Wednesday, March 20, the country superstar was honored with a ceremonial key to the Las Vegas Strip by Clark County Commissioner Marilyn Kirkpatrick. Adding to the celebration, the day was officially declared Miranda Lambert Day in the city, as reported by PEOPLE.
But the generosity didn’t stop there. Lambert was pleasantly surprised with a remarkable $140,000 check presented to benefit her MuttNation charity. This substantial sum was raised from the proceeds of her shows at Planet Hollywood, with $1 from every ticket sold during her Velvet Rodeo residency donated to Lambert’s dog-friendly foundation.
