This is what our media is wasting.

I've cried every time I've watched it.

that video, among other things, is exactly why I wanted to go to africa for christmas.

What sort of things do you want to do in Africa?

[_transient]

And why for Christmas, out of curiousity?

[thefuturist]

well thats when my parents spend so much money on gift and things, so we could use the money we woul to buy things and get a flight there and help with things they need like clean water, schools, houses, shoes.

I can get the song, but no images. Hmm...

The images are the part that make me cry.

Basically she took the 150,000 dollars it would have taken to make that music video and instead made it with $15 and donated the rest to various causes around the world. It's shocking how much difference that money can make, and it sad that the media wastes that money on music videos. There is a list of the donations made with that money that you can click on below where the video should be, in case you're interested.

Oh, gee. That is amazing. When you watch TV you don't even think about how much money is spent. Money that could have been spent on something much more important.

Exactly. It makes me so sad.
