\u2018MSAADA\u2019 – ‘HELP’ (in Kiswahili, widely spoken in East Africa.)<\/em><\/p>\n

Batuki Music Society invites you to \u2018Msaada\u2019, the East Africa Relief concert
\nto benefit the M\u00e9dicins Sans Fronti\u00e8res\/Doctors Without Borders<\/a> Horn of Africa Crisis campaign.<\/p>\n

The concert features a lineup of some of Toronto\u2019s popular African artists: Henok Abebe, Kooshin, Faduma Nakruma, Daniel Nebiat, Donn\u00e9 Roberts, Kemer Yousef, Njacko Backo and Val, Sonia Aimy, Ijovudu Dance, Hussein Adani, Yared Tesfaye, DJ Apollo and more. Many of the musicians performing hail from the countries severely affected by the famine (Somalia, Ethiopia and Kenya) and are joining hands with Batuki Music Society to raise funds and public awareness. 100% of proceeds from the \u2018Msaada\u2019 concert will benefit the M\u00e9decins Sans Fronti\u00e8res\/Doctors Without Borders Horn of Africa Crisis campaign. All donations will be matched by the Government of Canada’s East Africa Drought Relief Fund.<\/p>\n

A wide swath of East Africa that includes Kenya and Ethiopia has been hit by years of drought, and regions of Somalia are suffering from the worst famine in 20 years, over 3 million people starving. Years of conflict in southern Somalia have exacerbated the emergency, preventing aid agencies from helping communities in the area. Thousands of Somalis have fled mainly to Kenya and Ethiopia, with many dying during the journey.<\/p>\n

Your donations are valuable. We have a real opportunity to save lives through emergency relief efforts in Somalia, Kenya and Ethiopia. Our hope is that Canadians will learn more about this crisis and donate funds to help those in need.<\/p>\n

PWYC… suggested donation $15<\/p>\n

Every dollar counts…. asante, shukran, thank you, merci!<\/p>\n
