It exists to provide financial assistance to disadvantaged children of Tennessee's Jackson and DeKalb counties to meet immediate medical, nutritional and educational needs not covered by insurance or other means. They helped raise over $25,000 during their
September 2012 concert which brought the total monetary contribution to over $80,000 since Helping Hands' inception in 2010.

Vincent will release their new album,
Brother of the Highway, (Rounder Records) in early 2013.
