Dear Friends:
Dianne Reeves here with an important favor to ask of you to help save lives. It will not cost you anything and will take but a moment of your time.
Vocalist extraordinaire, UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and my dear friend, Angelique Kidjo, recently wrote and recorded a song with her daughter Naima and husband Jean entitled “YOU CAN COUNT ON ME,” which features outstanding musicians in the jazz and world music communities: Lionel Loueke, Christian Mcbride, Kendrick Scott and Ibrahim “Thiokho” Diagne.
Please download “YOU CAN COUNT ON ME” from the UNICEF website below. It’s free! For every download Pampers has generously offered to donate funds to provide tetanus vaccinations to women of child-bearing age. Please forward this to your friends and let’s all be counted on. The goal is one million downloads!!!
Peace and Light,
Dianne Reeves
