Grand Ole Opry Hosts Face The Fight Night Sept. 10 To Raise Awareness For Veteran Suicide Prevention

Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry and its presenting sponsor Humana are partnering for the second time for Face the Fight on Sept. 10, to drive awareness and education about veteran suicide prevention on World Suicide Prevention Day.

The cast includes military supporters Coffey Anderson, Mickey Guyton and Tucker Wetmore along with Opry member Craig Morgan, who served 17 years in the Army and continues to serve in the Army Reserve.

Face the Fight, launched in June 2023 by founding partners the Humana Foundation, Reach Resilience and USAA, as an initiative to bring organizations together to reduce the veteran suicide rate. The coalition now includes more than 250 members working collectively to raise awareness, reduce stigma and engage communities. Face the Fight-funded programs have impacted more than 355,000 people.  

“We are deeply committed to reducing veteran suicide and proud to stand alongside our partners in the Face the Fight coalition,” states George Renaudin, Humana’s President of Insurance in a release. “The progress we’ve made together is a powerful reminder that no veteran should ever feel alone. Face the Fight Night is more than an event – it’s a celebration of resilience, a call to action, and a message of hope. Together, we are breaking down stigma, building stronger communities and driving purposeful change.”
