Established in 2005 by Linkin Park in response to the Southeast Asian Tsunami, Music For Relief was founded with the goal of bringing the music community together to provide aid to victims of natural disasters. Furthering that initial goal, they have expanded their mission to include educating the public on global warming and working to reduce greenhouse gasses.
�We are excited to work with Habitat for Humanity and American Forests,� says Linkin Park�s Mike Shinoda, �there is a lot more that we would like to accomplish and we are proud to team up with these amazing organizations.�
The concept of Music for Relief originated amongst the members of Linkin Park with the goal that if they could pool together their resources and encourage music-industry professionals, peers and fans to join the cause, they could make a direct impact in assisting relief efforts. Since 2005, Music For Relief has raised more than $2 million for victims of the Tsunami, Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita, with current efforts concentrated on rebuilding the U.S. Gulf Coast and helping to prevent future natural disasters by reducing greenhouse gasses.
