Trisha Yearwood is set to perform at the 2nd Annual Save the Children Illumination Gala in New York City on Nov. 19.

The gala will be hosted by artist ambassador and trustee Jennifer Garner, honoring Ben Affleck, the Right Honorable Tony Blair, Austin Hearst, T.J. Maxx and more. The purpose of the event is to benefit the organization's goal of helping end preventable maternal, newborn and child deaths, as well as supporting early childhood education.

Affleck will be receiving the Global Child Advocate Award for his work founding the Eastern Congo Initiative, which has given health services and preventative care to over 41,000 women and children.

“This year’s gala honorees share an unwavering commitment to giving children living in the poorest, toughest places on earth a stronger start in life," says Carolyn Miles, Save the Children president and CEO. "Through their work, more babies and toddlers are getting the right health care, early learning opportunities, and a greater chance to reach their full potential. We look forward to sharing this special evening together and shining the spotlight on the outstanding achievements of our guests of honor."

Yearwood's twelfth studio album, 'PrizeFighter: Hit after Hit,' is set for release on Nov. 17. More information about the gala is available at SaveTheChildren.org.
