Friday night I was a phone volunteer at our local TV station's telethon to
raise money for the Red Cross. I met lots of Red Cross volunteers & am
extremely impressed with the organization. Here is some of what I learned.
They help by providing food & shelter & counseling services in cases like
the September 11 tragedy. As of Friday, they had served 1,400,000 meals
since September 11 but that is probably lots more by the time you read this.
The Red Cross is 97% volunteers. They are still serving people affected by
the Oklahoma City disaster.
My favorite online store, CDBABY.com has offered musicians the oppportunity
to donate 100% of our CD sales to the Red Cross. So that is what I am doing.
We are all looking for ways to help. This is the way I have chosen to help:
time, blood, & CD sales via CDBABY.
So if you are thinking of donating to the Red Cross, consider this way & get
some music in return. If you are thinking of holiday presents, consider this
as an option. I plan to donate these sales to the Red Cross through the
holiday season. Lots of folks have told me that this CD has healing vibes in
it. The songs for me were healing to write, & the making of the CD for me
was a magical process thanks to all the talented musicians who contributed &
especially because of my wonderful co-producer & engineer Jack Lee (we have
already started working on a second CD). I am grateful to all who have been
so kind to give me such postive feedback & reviews.
