ABOUT THE DICKSON COUNTY CRAIG MORGAN FOUNDATION: The main goal of the 501c3 is to assist foster children in Dickson County and throughout Middle Tennessee. The idea for Billy’s Place, a component fund of the Dickson County Craig Morgan Foundation, was born while Craig Morgan was serving as an Assistant Sheriff’s Deputy in Dickson, TN and named for his wife Karen’s father. Craig’s continuing charitable mission is to eventually build and maintain a home called Billy’s Place in Dickson County Tennessee for temporarily displaced children in Tennessee’s 23rd District (5 counties) and to provide lasting funding for the home. The annual Craig Morgan Charity Event has raised $250,000 the last four years in support of Billy’s Place and other children’s welfare organizations.
