Carrie Underwood raises over $101,000 for charity in Nashville Easter concert

Carrie Underwood raised more than $101,000 for an international children's charity by the end of her Easter Day livestream concert filmed at the famous Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. 

Underwood performed hymns such as "O How I Love Jesus," "I Surrender All" and "Amazing Grace" from her recent gospel album "My Savior," with the help of special guests in gospel legend CeCe Winans and NEEDTOBREATHE frontman Bear Rinehart. As of 6:30 a.m. ET on Monday, her fundraiser for humanitarian organization Save The Children had collected $101,035.

The performance, which aired live on her Facebook page Sunday and will be available to view for free for the following 48 hours, raised donations for Save The Children, which "works in over 100 countries to make sure children all over the world grow up healthy, educated and safe." 

“It means so much to be able to bring this event to people in their homes on a day that holds so much meaning for us spiritually and to be able to raise much needed funds and awareness for the incredible work of Save the Children as we celebrate the importance of family," Underwood said in a news release. 

The seven-time Grammy Award-winning artist released "My Savior" on Friday. The 13-song record features Underwood covering gospel hymns from her childhood in styles ranging from folk to bluegrass, traditional country and gospel.
