Party organizers I Love Muzika will help promote
the recently-launched Faces campaign in Aruba with a series of
special party events and a concert at the end of May.
"They (I Love Muzika) are the perfect vehicle
to bring the concept of safe sex practices to the youth. When
they send a message, youngsters listen,” said Greg Peterson,
president of the Aruba Overseas Branch of the Netherlands Red
Cross.
I Love Muzika, known
for their ‘Full Moon' parties and recognized for bringing
renowned deejays to Aruba , is also assisting the Red Cross to bring the rock
group “Intwine” to Aruba for a double event.
Intwine, a Netherlands-based
band with Aruban members, will dedicate a special song titled “Peace of Mind” for
the Red Cross.
The money raised during the I Love Muzika parties,
Intwine's concerts and the sales of the song are intended for
Aruba 's Red Cross.
In order to help the Red Cross branches of Curacao
and Bonaire as well, Intwine will return to the Netherlands via
Curacao , where they will also perform to generate funds.
“This is a win-win dream come through”, says Peterson. “The
youth can't live without music. The message is being brought
to them via their favorite channel and through their role models.
Respect for and awareness of the Red Cross is spread among the
youth and at the same time these events are creating funds for
the Red Cross to be able to carry out its social programs. It
is ‘cool' to be a Red Cross volunteer!”
