Vince Gill to pitch in

Posted Apr 16, 2008

Over the past three years, North Carolina coaches and fans have helped raise more than $500,000 for 5-year-old Reece Holbrook and the Pediatric Oncology Department at UNC Children's Hospital. Later this month, country music star Vince Gill will try to add about $100,000 more. The Grammy Award winner offered to play a benefit on April 30 at Chapel Hill's Memorial Hall after hearing the story of Reece, whose leukemia is in remission. (Raleigh News & Observer)
