Singer Sarah McLachlan Diverts Video Costs to World's Poor

Singer Sarah McLachlan Diverts Video Costs to World's Poor
Singer songwriter Sarah McLachlan produced the first music video to donate the normal cost of producing such a video to people around the world who need it most -- mothers, babies, hospitals, schools.

Singer-songwriter Sarah McLachlan produced the first music video that donates the normal cost of production to people around the world who need it most — mothers, babies, hospitals, schools. For instance, the hair and makeup expenses for a video shoot, about $5,000 a day, provided schooling for 145 girls in Afghanistan. Some of the lyrics to World On Fire are pasted below.

Congrats to Sarah, who lists her donations here.

The world's on fire and It's more than I can handle Dive into the water I try to pull my ship I try to bring what I am able Bring it to the table

I watch the heavens and I find a calling Something I can do to change this moment
