UK online CD store Get Me Music has launched a new ‘world music’ CD entitled Child Alive with all profits being donated to the crisis in Darfur, Sudan.
The company has recently partnered with international development charity, Plan to raise funds for children who have been the innocent victims of war in Sudan.

The album consists of 18 original compositions by artists from all over the world each with an "anti- war" theme. The artists have donated these songs and have wavered their rights to any royalties.

Plan, founded in 1937, is a child-centered international humanitarian organisation helping children to realise their full potential. The money raised from the sale of the CD will be donated to help Plan's work in Darfur, Sudan. The armed conflict in western Sudan has resulted in what has been described by the UN as “the worst humanitarian crisis of the century”.... At least 80,000 people have lost their lives so far. A further 1.6 million have fled to urban areas or are living in 129 refugee camps across Darfur, an area the size of France, and over the border in Chad.

“This is a really exciting project for us, the funds raised will help enable over 19,000 displaced children continue with a basic level of education in Northern Dafur. There is a desperate need for temporary classrooms, qualified teachers, textbooks and recreational materials and we’re really thankful to Getmemusic and the Child Alive CD for helping to make this possible” commented Ruth Baker, Corporate Marketing Officer.

Following the Tsunami disaster and the generosity shown by the British public, it is easy to forget that ongoing tragedies are killing thousands every day.
Further details of Plan's projects can be found at www.plan-uk.org
For further information on Plan, contact Emma Woodgate on 0207 482 9596.

The CD retails at £6.99 of which £5.00 goes directly to Plan.
It can be purchased online at www.getmemusic.com/childalive
