Music Cares




On September 26th, Typhoon Ondoy hit the Philippines, bringing rain equaling that of a month's worth of rainfall within 6 hours. Its aftermath is devastating--at least 246 victims died in the storm and 38 people remain missing. Many filipinos now remain homeless, cold, and hungry; a majority of them seeking shelter in one of 207 evacuation centers.

In an effort to help provide relief, J-ricz (j-ricz.com) is collecting donations in behalf of all the victims of Typhoon Ondoy. All donations will be forwarded to UNICEF (http://www.unicef.org/philippines), where it will benefit children directly affected by Ondoy. We have also received a tip that an anonymous donor has pledged to match all donations made to UNICEF. We urge everyone to make the effort to help out in any way you can--every donation, no matter how small or big will go long way. To make a donation, please visithttp://jricz.chipin.com/typhoon-ondoy-relief.

J-ricz has also pledged to donate all proceeds (during October until the end of December) of his upcoming single "Love Affair" to UNICEF. Information on various drop-off locations for food or clothing donations will also be provided. Visit http://www.j-ricz.com/list4/link.php?t=m&i=7&s=1284&l=Li4vLi4v for more information.
