The Project Rhythm Seed Staff believe in the work that Invisible Children are doing. Please take a moment to check out this campaign:

To bring the 3,000 child soldiers home, it will take an army of at least 3,000 individuals to pledge $3 a week through TRI. Your $3 a week will go straight to advocacy, awareness and events that will lead to The Rescue of the child soldiers. Your TRI donation will stop as soon as Joseph Kony’s child soldiers are set free. If you don’t TRI, who will? Sign up now.

Mike Halloran teaching kids to read through Hip-Hop

admin

Friend of the foundation, and local FM 94/9 San Diego music director and DJ Mike Halloran is taking reading to the next level with what he is calling the hip-hop of Dr. Suess. The idea is to provide kids that don’t immediately connect with reading, a new approach by providing a musical backbone, which makes reading more fun. Teaming up with fellow San Diego radio colleague Chris Cantore, the story highlights their visit to Fay Elementary in San Diego, CA. The next step for Halloran is to approach the hip-hop community and put together a CD with top artists putting their own beat to a famous rhyme. The story and idea have gained national attention and CNN produced a story highlighting the cause.
