Goodall confirmed this:

“Walker has this foundation. [Back when] he had lost his record deal — and he has like six kids — he had to give his van back, so a friend of his named Craig — and he has a song named ‘Craig’ — gifted him with a van when he was down on his luck. So, when Walker finally made it bigger, he started the Be a Craig Fund and people who are in need of a decent vehicle can get one.”

“Walker pulled up in a brand new 2024, which to me this is surreal because being a singer and the name of the car is a Buick Encore, so to me it’s kind of fitting,” he told Parade.

“That was just a bright, kind of, light to be a part of today,” Hayes told WTWO WAWV TV about the surprise. “You know, seeing everybody support him. [It was a] very pure experience watching him go chase his dreams.”
