World on Fire ..
Grammy-winning singer Sarah McLachlan performs her socially
conscious song, "World on Fire," from the CD Afterglow.
After brainstorming different ideas for the music video,
Sarah says her director approached her with a groundbreaking idea.
Instead of the usual $150,000 or more that it takes to produce
a music video,
Sarah created the entire "World on Fire" video herself for just $15.
Then, she spent the left over money to help more than 1 million
women and children around the world. In the video,
Sarah spells out exactly how the donated money was spent.

    Fantastic! Just fantastic.
    Some time little things have a big effect. Hope people see how they can help just in a small amount. One less Starbucks coffee per week can feed a family for couple of days. Don't have to be a hero just a human being who cares.

    That is incredible!

    Talk about a real role model for the music industry, and Hollywood for that matter.

    Thank you for that post.
