HOLLYWOOD- In effort to raise awareness for those in need, Project We.The.Children., has created a Celebrity gathering to raise funds for the Haitians desperately in need of aid. The death and destruction in Haiti has created a strong need for support from all over the world. Project We.The.Children. has decided to donate to Haiti Earthquake Victims. Funds sent to Haiti will not only help them recover from the immediate effects of the disaster, but it will also help them as they begin the long process of reconstruction.
This year’s hottest award season kickoff party will commence on January 28th 2010 at The House of Blues in Hollywood, CA. While most charitable events are giving away up to 30% of their profits or less, Project We.The.Children. is giving away 100%.


The party will feature live music, dancing, and cocktails. A-List celebrities, Grammy Nominees and the best of the best in the entertainment industry will be in attendance. All ticket buyers will receive a copy of The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band featuring Rick Vito’s BLUE AGAIN DVD (scheduled to be released on January 26, 2010). An EXCLUSIVE private dinner will be held at the Foundation room for all celebrity participants and will feature a Mick Fleetwood Private Cellar Wine with a special toast by Mick Fleetwood himself.

Mick Fleetwood, the iconic co-founder of Fleetwood Mac, is celebrating his blues heritage with his Grammy-nominated band. Their album, Blue Again, is nominated in the Best Traditional Blues Album category. At the front of the group is Rick Vito, veteran Bluesman and former Fleetwood Mac vocalist and lead guitarist.
