The Teaching Pastor at my church, Francis Chan, is partnering with Compassion International and several well-known Musical Artists to raise funds for Haiti at an event called “HELP HAITI LIVE“. “HELP HAITI LIVE” is a multi-city ticketed concert event taking place on February 27th, 2010 to benefit Compassion International’s Haiti disaster relief fund. The event will also be streamed live at HelpHaitiLive.com for those who cannot attend one of the concerts in person. 100% of on-line donations through HelpHaitiLive.com will go to Compassion International’s Haiti disaster relief fund. 100% of net proceeds from ticket sales will go to Compassion International’s Haiti disaster relief fund.
The event here in LA is taking place at 7:30PM at the Wiltern on February 27th, 2010. I am super excited to not only go to this event but to be a part of it. I hope that if you’re in the LA area you’ll get your tickets ASAP and be a part of something pretty freakin awesome! If you can’t make it, please consider making a donation to either Children’s Hunger Fund or Compassion International. Even though Haiti is no longer the lead story on the news, that doesn’t change the fact that widespread suffering is still taking place in the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. If I had my choice, I’d be on a plane to Haiti doing whatever I could to help these people and to encourage and support missionaries that have been engaged in the front lines of ministry there for many years. But it looks like the next best thing for me to do is promote the heck out of this event!
