"In looking for ways to help the struggling citizens of Haiti, Tom and I
wanted to develop one common platform where individuals could come to
make donations of skills or money," Dahiwadkar said. "Being able to help
them is something about which I feel very strongly, and I would
encourage everyone to look very deeply and join us in our efforts."
"While listening to the Cat Stevens song, Peace Train, I realized that
something needed to be done to help culminate efforts to get the music
industry involved in helping the Haitians," Smith said. "In talking with
my friend, Sanjeev, we decided to launch this Web site to help broaden
awareness of the great need to come together as one and support those in
need."
"Together we can all make a huge difference just the way that was done
with Farm Aid and several other extremely worthy causes," both said.
