I thought, “Gosh … I better write something inspiring!”

A while back, we drafted a summary statement of Music for Charities. It described how Music for Charities combines fundraising for non-profit organizations with the promotion of independent musicians.

In the past three years, we dreamt of putting community development to music. We built the site. We hosted our first live music events. But there was something else going on.

Inspiration.

• Paul Freeman inspired with his message to “Love One Another” … Simply Elegant!
• Eric Tunison inspired by providing 40%-off of studio time for MFC Artists … Generous!
• Tammy Allen inspired us with song and her brilliant idea to launch the Everyday People Do Good Everyday Award … Phenomenal!
• Darin Seldes inspired Stone Soup I with his drive to find a cure for his son’s illness, Mitochondrial Disease … Touching!
• Paige O’Neil inspired with thoughtful humanity for our four-legged friends … Smart!
• Gustavo Gonzalez inspired by providing his soaring rhythms for the benefit small children near and far … Without Borders!
• Michael Ellis inspired with his humanity for the wild in a frequently unforgiving city … Encouraging!
• Laura Sosa-Rocha inspired by taking Music for Charities further into the community at large than our modest means could allow … Magnanimous!
• Cooper Tisdale inspired in every musical style … Uber-Talented!
• Lee Wilson inspired by bringing hope to those in need of counsel … Guiding!
• Jason and Nanyana Reichert inspired with style and sass … Gleeful!
• The Hedgecoth Family inspired by bringing the care of needy children and animals together … Shining!
• Kathy Lucy inspired by serving as an unofficial MFC ambassador … Thoughtful!
• The MFC Board of Advisors inspired through self-less thoughtfulness … Motivating!
• Michael Frank inspired with a ‘never-gonna-give-up’ attitude that continues to be felt from far away … Galvanizing!
• James Farrow inspired through bountiful technological genius … Bloody Brilliant, mate!
• Antonio Choice inspired through his drive, persistent presence, friendship, humor, optimism, and belief in the MFC Community … Life-saving!
• Tathyanna inspired through more love than a man could hope for … Life-giving!

… And this is the short list …
Long Live the Inspiration.

Thanks to you all!

Let’s have some fun as the ranks of the Music for Charities Community continues to grow.

Who are Do Good Everyday People?
ATLANTA (March, 2008) — Have you every wished you could acknowledge the everyday people who make a difference? We believe the selfless should be celebrated for their humanity and compassion. Beginning at 8 pm on May 3rd, jazz singer Tammy Allen and Music For Charities will officially launch www.DoGoodEveryday.com. Tammy Allen, the founder of The Everyday People Award, remarked, “The spirit of this award is to acknowledge the Everyday People whose acts of kindness, small and large, truly make a difference in our lives. They inspire us all to make the world a better place.”

Everyday People are not celebrities; they are family members, friends, neighbors, co-workers and maybe even strangers who perform selfless acts simply because they care. You wouldn’t know it by listening to the news, but there are many people donating their talents, money and most importantly their time to make the world a better place. The Do Good Everyday People Award seeks to acknowledge everyday humanitarians and encourage their acts of kindness.

How does The Do Good Everyday People Award work?
It’s easy. It’s online. Submit a brief description with verifiable facts and websites about an Everyday Person that you feel embodies the Do Good Everyday People Award. The candidate will be notified of their nomination by email. Nominees’ stories will be posted and readers can vote online. Each month’s winner will receive a small prize package and be featured for the month.

Winners will then be eligible for The 2008 Everyday People Award and grand prize package!

Music for Charities is proud to provide the online nomination and voting arena for the Do Good Everyday People Award. Securely housed within the Music for Charities website (www.DownloadUplift.com), users may review nominee information for the current month as well as browse the stories of months past. Consistent with its mission to nurture a beneficial community, Music for Charities is excited to offer this service to the Do Good Everyday People Award winners, nominees, voters, and the community at large. At its core, Music for Charities combines fundraising for non-profit organizations with the promotion of independent musicians.

When does The Do Good Everyday People Award start?
The opening round for nominations of The Everyday People Award will be held at a live musical event! The launch party, held at Roswell’s Se Vauge, will feature twice the enjoyment with well-known local songstress Tammy Allen and bossa nova guitarist/vocalist Daniel Adam Johnson, founder of Music for Charities. Come hear two incredibly talented artists who are as passionate about making a difference in the world as they are about their music.

Where? When?
Enjoy the true essence of Cajun Creole cuisine at Se Vauge, Roswell’s newest fine dining restaurant to feature live entertainment. The dramatic hotspot takes music seriously and spared no expense with a state of the art sound and lighting system. Se Vauge’s grand piano and showroom-style stage allow the wonderful music to illuminate the room. Se Vauge is located at 10800 Alpharetta Hwy, Roswell, GA 30076.

This event begins at 8 pm on May 3rd, 2008.
