When Mother Nature Calls | Seeds of Change Charity Music Concert

“The earth has its music for those who will listen.”

Music engages our emotions, imagination, and intelligence in creative endeavours that promote personal wellbeing and social cohesion. Music connects people. Music heals. Music empowers. 

And so does nature. There are mysterious forces in nature that awaken and nourish our mind, body and soul. We, as human beings, have tremendous potential to create a positive impact in this world - to make our lives worth living for, and support the most vulnerable in society. 

Seeds of Change's 4th Charity Music Concert aspires to bring people together to celebrate life, to be grateful for what we have, to inspire each other, to connect with each other and ourselves through the power of nature sounds, and to raise money for charity.

Join us on 12 December for another night of celebration, music, food and community.

About the Charity We Are Supporting

Shining Star is a foster home for blind and partially sighted orphans, in QingPu District, Shanghai, and is one of Mifan Mama’s key projects. 

Following many years of orphanage visits it became apparent that blind or partially sighted children are not provided with the attention they need to develop and flourish: as a result, in 2012 Shining Starwas formed. The organization’s staff are specially trained to work with blind children to allow the children to experience the outside world and to provide one-to-one quality time, maximising their learning. 

The long-term aim for each child is either family adoption or full integration into the state system. Long-term funding for the home is essential to provide stability and quality of life for these children, who have an extremely challenging life ahead of them.
