Happy Holidays!!!

For those of you purchasing necklaces or donating in someone’s honor this season, here is a little tag you can email the gift-ee about your present to them (yes, email is a little less personal so feel free to print and give with the gift… but we at UPBEAT are very green).

100% of of proceeds from the present I gave you goes to the making of UPBEAT – a film about the African Children’s Choir and their outreach non-profit, Music for Life. UPBEAT is capturing the stories of the Choir and their work around the world. This is the Choir’s 25th anniversary and they are hoping to continue their great development work by going pan-African and raising awareness about the 12 million AIDS orphans on the Continent. Every penny the film earns will go to expanding Music for Life Centers across Africa, bringing joy, hope and education to thousands of vulnerable children who are growing up to be positive African leaders. This truly is the gift that keeps on giving… if you are interested in getting involved visit africanchildrenschoir.com/thefilm and africanchildrenschoir.com. Happy Holidays!!!
