More than 200 artists and 30 record labels have come together to donate vinyl for an online raffle to raise funds for healthcare for the Palestinian people.
Announced today (March 5), the initiative, organised by Records For Palestine, features two separate Crowdfunder raffles - one focused on alternative, rock and electronic music, the other on jazz, soul, hip-hop and global groove releases - running over the next two months, offering 47 vinyl prizes donated by artists and record labels from across the global music community.
Explaining the motivation behind the initiative, Records For Palestine say, "Many artists have been involved in fundraising and raising awareness from the web to the stage. Records For Palestine provides another way for artists, labels, curators and music fans to pledge support — allowing us to raise funds while also giving artists and labels a platform to stand in visible solidarity with Palestinians."
