Members of an exclusive club are making a rare joint appearance Saturday.
All five living former US presidents will take part in a benefit concert in Texas to raise money for hurricane relief efforts, while President Donald Trump will appear in a taped video message to the concertgoers, the White House announced Saturday.
Former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter will attend Saturday night's event, named "Deep From the Heart: The One America Appeal," at Reed Arena at Texas A&M University in College Station.
Apparently Trump is going to send a video message, but that is really all he can do right now as he is dealing with more important matters.
However the men who took their jobs seriously are showing up to help their fellow Americans whose lives have been devastated by these recent disasters.
The concert won't be the first time the former presidents have joined forces.
After Hurricane Harvey struck Texas in September, all five started the "One America Appeal" charity effort and filmed a video urging citizens to help out amid the devastating flooding.
They have since resumed the effort in the aftermath of Hurricanes Irma and Maria.
I mean at this point anything is worth a try.

This is his 74th day at a golf club, 94th day at a Trump property as president.

I am long past hoping that Trump is capable of learning on the job, but just maybe he can be shamed into actually doing his job by the example set by these men.As Americans, we lift each other up. I’m proud to be a part of this night. Hope you’ll tune in. https://t.co/FZLWfNBLw5 https://t.co/Mv6Kg2ZwMZ— Bill Clinton (@BillClinton) October 21, 2017
