The event was created in partnership between Bocelli, Perez and Dezer, to work together to raise funds for the Andrea Bocelli Foundation’s Haiti project, which strives to better the lives of children in Haiti through education and music. Currently, the Foundation is working on building schools in Haiti to enrich the lives of more than 2,500 children. All money generated from the event will directly benefit the Foundation’s mission in hopes of building two more schools.
