Days of Our Lives EP Ken Corday Plans Benefit Concert

Ken Corday, the executive producer of the long-running soap opera 'Days of Our Lives,' is organizing a third concert to benefit the SAG/AFTRA Foundation’s Emergency Assistance Program. This initiative aims to provide financial aid to performers and their families facing hardship. Corday, who is also a composer, has previously held two sold-out concerts in 2023 and 2024 that successfully raised funds for the foundation. The upcoming event, titled "Songs Without Words," is scheduled to take place over three nights in November.

The concert will showcase a new collection of Corday's original musical compositions. The SAG/AFTRA Foundation's Emergency Assistance Program is a critical resource for members of the Screen Actors Guild‐American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), offering grants and support during times of crisis, such as illness, injury, or job loss. The program's work is particularly vital in an industry known for its freelance nature and unpredictable employment.

Corday's involvement highlights a growing trend of entertainment industry professionals using their talents and platforms to support charitable causes. His dual role as a producer and a composer allows him to leverage his creative skills for philanthropic endeavors. The success of his previous benefit concerts indicates a strong community response and a shared commitment to supporting fellow artists. The specific dates and venue for the November concerts have not yet been announced, but the event is expected to draw significant attention from both the entertainment industry and the public.

The Emergency Assistance Program, operated by the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, provides essential financial relief to eligible members and their dependents. This support can cover a range of needs, from medical expenses and housing assistance to basic living costs. The foundation's mission is to provide a safety net for performers, ensuring they have resources available during challenging periods. Corday's continued dedication to this cause underscores the importance of such programs in maintaining the well-being of the entertainment workforce. Further details regarding ticket sales and the concert schedule are anticipated to be released in the coming months.
