"When I first learned about USANA's partnership with the Children's Hunger Fund, I was moved to tears," said Collier. "I was only too eager to help out and knew that better than anything, I know music. So what better way to help make a difference than literally using my own voice?"

The song is being sold for 99 cents on many pay-for-music sites, including iTunes, Spotify and CDBaby.

"Music has a strong ability to emotionally impact people's lives," said [ USANA True Health Foundation President Elaine Pace ]. "Very seldom does it have the physical ability to create change, but with Chris's generous gift to the Foundation, he's undoubtedly singing his way to a better, healthier world."

The song was written, produced and performed in its entirety by Collier, and remains under the name of his former band, Bench Grinder.

"The holiday season is the perfect time for giving and I feel like this is a great way for people to give a little, make an impact and get some fantastic holiday music," said Collier.
