Former President and First Lady George and Laura Bush will serve as honorary chairs for the annual United Way of Metropolitan Dallas’ “Unite Forever” gala. The event will be held on Feb. 6 at AT&T Stadium and will include a private dinner and public concert headlined by Blake Shelton and Usher.

President Bush served as the United Way of Midland County campaign chair in 1981 and 1982, so the event has a special tie.

“Time and again, President and Mrs. George W. Bush have made important things happen in Dallas,” said Jennifer Sampson, President and CEO of the United Way of Metropolitan Dallas.
