The Stapleton family founded Outlaw State of Kind, named for the song "Outlaw State of Mind," in 2016. The fund is administered by the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee and supports a variety of causes that are close to Stapleton's heart. Over the past three years, the charity has donated to several Habitat for Humanity organizations in different cities, including Nashville. Additional causes supported include the Blue Grass Community Foundation, Companions for Heroes, the FBI Agents Association Memorial College Fund, Music Heath Alliance, Musicares Foundation and numerous others.
The charitable donation comes at a busy time in Stapleton's career. He's on the new Toy Story 4 soundtrack, and his trend-bucking All-American Road Show Tour continues into the fall.
