Something is happening in “Our Lives” and we need your help...
We have written a song called “Our Lives “ – a collaborative effort between three Canadian friends – Alvin Epp, Clifton Fred and John Bell – who believe that it is time we came together to build a better future for all our children and communities.
We believe in the power of music. Music is emotion. It moves us. It teaches us. It heals us. It is human spirit and a way to express ourselves when there are no words. Remember the emotions that were evoked when “We are the World” was released – the bonding and healing and raising of awareness was global in scale.
We believe “Our Lives” can have the same effect to help Canadians forgive, heal and move forward.
In June 2016, the Prime Minister of Canada will be making major announcements regarding the Truth and Reconciliation Report – A Call to Action. We want to have the song released and ready to coincide with his announcement to give Canadians – aboriginals and non-aboriginals alike – something to rally around.
We need your help to raise $20,000 by June 10th, 2016 to cover the costs of producing the song and the video and to spread the message across the country.
There are two ways you can help:
-
Make a donation
- Everyone who donates more than $25 will receive a copy of the song when it is released
- Everyone who donates more than $100 will receive an invitation to the Official Release Party and a copy of the song
- Everyone who donates more than $200 will receive a copy of a limited edition print by Clifton Fred (valued at $200), an invitation to the Official Release Party and a copy of the song
