AJ Rafael in Concert: A Benefit and Fast in Solidarity with the Philippines
A YouTube sensation, AJ Rafael is a Filipino-American. Since first posting his music on YouTube in 2006 he has had over 90 million hits.
The Benefit: All proceeds from the concert will benefit School of the SEA (Sea and Earth Advocates), a leading environmental education organization whose facilities were devastated by Typhoon Haiyan.
The Fast: Members of the Seattle University community will fast in solidarity with Yeb Sano, the chief Filipino negotiator to the UN climate change meetings this past November. Following Typhoon Haiyan's destruction of the Philippines, Mr. Sano fasted during those meetings, saying "In solidarity with my countrymen who are struggling to find food back home, I will now commence a voluntary fasting for the climate; this means I will voluntarily refrain from eating food during this meeting, until a meaningful outcome is in sight."
