Help Make A Difference!

I try to help charities, such as UNICEF, out as much as possible. I found another great one to help promote! IndieMV.com is partnering up with UNICEF for an amazing, Star-Studded, "Unite Against AIDS" benefit concert! The "concert features Avril Lavigne, Sarah McLachlan, Corneille, and Angelique Kidjo and will take place on November 28th at the Bell Centre in Montreal!"

I am sure you are wondering what IndieMV - Music+People is, right? Well, IndieMV is a music video based social network, and they are very excited to be teaming up with UNICEF for this event! One of their goals is to promote the impact that one individual can have on the world. They also have a youth video contest, which can be found at indieMV.com, that allows participants to edit video clips, images, and music tracks to incoorporate their own personal statements about the impact of AIDS. The prizes range from a trip to a concert in Montreal to iPods, Wii's, Best Buy gift certificates, and much more! See the below Press Release for more information.

Concurrent with the website launch, the Company is also pleased to announce their new relationship with UNICEF surrounding music-video based contests that have been organized to help promote their upcoming "Unite Against AIDS" benefit concert in Montreal, Canada on November 28, 2007, as well as promote independent music while spreading awareness for the "Unite For Children, Unite Against AIDS" campaign. IndieMV will be hosting a music-video contest in conjunction with UNICEF. It has been designed to give youth the opportunity to share their impressions and thoughts on issues regarding AIDS and its effect on the world. UNICEF will provide audio tracks and visual footage, and IndieMV will provide the platform for uploading, viewing, and voting for the music videos. Over the next couple of months, the Company's campus development efforts will carry the UNICEF message and encourage thousands to support the campaign and to build their scene on IndieMV.com.
