MUSIC FOR RELIEF seeks to bring the music community together under one blanket to maximize the efforts to create awareness and raise funds for those in need. MUSIC FOR RELIEF is comprised of musicians and music industry professionals.
MUSIC FOR RELIEF has two immediate goals. The first goal is to respond to natural disasters as they occur to help victims recover and rebuild, with an emphasis on housing, education programs and resources. The organization also recognizes the environmental consequences of global warming, which have demonstrated the capability to accelerate and strengthen certain types of natural disasters. Therefore the second goal of MUSIC FOR RELIEF is to help prevent and decrease future natural disasters by reducing greenhouse gasses, seeking renewable forms of energy and educating the public about climate change.
Long term, MUSIC FOR RELIEF is committed to expand efforts to a global scale and have the resources to be able to mobilize the music community and music fans to help various causes throughout the world should the need arise.
To achieve our goals of rebuilding the U.S. gulf coast and combating climate change MUSIC FOR RELIEF has chosen to partner with HABITAT FOR HUMANITY and AMERICAN FORESTS respectively.

BACKGROUND
Established in 2005 to provide aid for those affected by the tsunami tragedy in South Asia, the idea for MUSIC FOR RELIEF originated amongst the members of the band Linkin Park who wanted to do something to help the victims. The idea was that if they made a donation, and then asked their musician peers and their fans to make a donation as well, a huge impact could be made in assisting relief efforts. With this in mind they started reaching out to others in the music community to get involved and became the founders of MUSIC FOR RELIEF.
MUSIC FOR RELIEF has already raised over 2 million dollars for the victims of the tsunami in Southeast Asia and hurricanes Katrina and Rita and planted over 355,000 trees to help reduce global warming.
