He Has Helped Our Service Members in Other Ways
Two years ago, Green founded the Buford Bonds Charitable Fund, per 989bull.com. It's named for Green's granddads, Lendon Bonds and Buford Green. The singer said per the outlet via The Anniston Star, "A lot of our charities that we support with the foundation are military stuff, Folds of Honor, things like that, and they were both in the armed forces, but just great role models."
He added, "My granddaddy Lendon played golf at Stoney Brook about every day with his brothers, and I learned to play golf with him. And my granddad, Buford, was a real witty guy, and probably where I got a lot of my songwriting ability from."
