A Small Initiative to Help Haiti
February 1, 2010Last week, CDBaby announced that they will donate $1 from every CD sold until Sunday, February 7 to earthquake relief efforts in Haiti. The donation comes out of their transaction fee, so it does not affect the amount of money that artists make from each sale. You can learn more about CDBaby’s effort here.
Heuristic Music has decided to join in this initiative by making a $1 donation to the Canadian Red Cross for every copy of Quieting The Busy Mind sold through CDBaby until February 7. If you haven’t checked out Quieting The Busy Mind yet, this is a great chance to grab your copy while contributing to the relief efforts in Haiti.

Thanks for your support!
