"One Voice for Children" Virtual Concert Boosts World Vision's Fundraising Drive

 

 

 

An all-star lineup of concert artists successfully held a one-night only virtual musical show to support the educational projects of Christian advocacy organization World Vision and to help raise funds for the distribution of school kits especially during this difficult time of the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Titled "One Voice for Children," the star-studded online concert was led by World Vision ambassadors Ogie Alcasid, Christian Bautista, Iñigo Pascual, Quest, Perkins Twins, and JJ Dolor as performers. Regine Velasquez-Alcasid also had a special participation as a surprise guest performer. Hosted by Joyce Pring, the event was filled with messages of hope from World Vision advocates Jasmine Curtis-Smith, Tippy Dos Santos, Bianca Umali, Marc Nelson, Enzo Pineda, Gelli Victor, and Janina Vela.

An inspirational fundraising concert that aims to support World Vision's communities of vulnerable children and their families, “One Voice for Children” raised a total of Php350,000 donations in a span of two hours, with over 23,000 views and more than 2,500 engagements.

“Producing/Directing in the new normal is very challenging. Lots of trial and error and it really takes us out of our comfort zone. But knowing that this was for a great cause and that so many artists were willing to get involved made it very fulfilling. I hope this will not be the last,” said World Vision Ambassador Paolo Valenciano, who also directed the groundbreaking virtual concert.

“Amidst the pandemic, we are able to sing and enjoy each other’s company, even virtually. We are deeply grateful to all who supported this loud call to help the most vulnerable children. Let’s continue praying for our nation and the whole world,” said Mr. Rommel Fuerte, National Director for World Vision.
