Max It Out

Helping others... that's what life's all about!

About Me

I'm an annual Nashville event which began back in 2002 as Keith Urban's Max It Out to support meningitis research. I'm an intimate and unique show/concert including a dinner, silent auction and live auction. My namesake is a six year old, Max... who survived bacterial meningitis at six weeks of age. Not unscathed, he has many physical challenges... his little personality touches the hearts of everyone he meets and he's inspired more people than I know! My event now supports other pediatric research efforts along with meningitis at the Monroe Carrell Jr.'s Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt, in hopes to make a world-wide impact with cures, vaccinations, and education. Peek at my website to learn more about me... www.maxitout.org! The slideshow below includes shots from my 2004, 2005, & 20006 events. I've included the number of years the artists and singer-songwriters have participated, if it's more than once.MAX IT OUT 2007 WAS HELD ON FEBRUARY 3RD AT THE WILDHORSE SALOON in Nashville.

My Interests

I'm interested in raising funds to support the physicians who can make immunizations and cures a reality... in other words, to prevent others from being strickened by horrific diseases and their after-effects! And I'm also interested in creating more incredible shows for my supporters!
