CompassionArt follow-up

As a follow-up to my post on CompassionArt, the compilation CD, all of whose proceeds would go to fight world poverty, let me share some more great news on this front. CompassionArt, Family Christian Stores, and EMI CMG have announced the CompassionArt project as the first ever Family Christian Stores “Album of the Year.” Along with this announcement, Family Christian Stores has pledged to donate $1 per CD/DVD sold to CompassionArt through its James Fund foundation, with an additional $1 for the first 25,000 units sold! The funds are being directed towards a Creative Arts Center for Watoto, a charity championed by Delirious? frontman and CompassionArt founder Martin Smith. The project will encourage artistic education for orphaned children to abused mothers, aiming at restoring hope in the midst of suffering.

This is one more great reason to get out and purchase this CD/DVD combo.
