..We'd like to invite those of you who have overcome challenges, to submit your art work, poetry and personal stories. Your stories will help others who are struggling through hard times.
We'd also like to invite all the artists on myspace.com to join us in our efforts.

Youth all around the world tune into your music to create a culture of familiarity, a sense of belonging, a community of their own.
