Blessings raise Lullaby for
Columbine benefit CD to new heights.
We wanted to get the word out about all of the wonderful
things happening for the Lullaby for Columbine Project in 2000 as we approach the one
year anniversary of the Columbine tragedy. We were founded shortly after the
Columbine shooting to provide financial aid and healing to the victims through
music. To learn more about our mission and the wonderful people behind the scenes,
please visit the LFC website. We want to
thank David Vande Velde at MoneyTeam
Webservices for hosting the LFC News so we can keep you informed on everything
happening with our project.
LFC Acquires Sponsor for National Release.
USA Video Interactive has recently joined forces in
becoming our sponsor to help with the costs of our national release. They donated
$25,000 to help us meet our distribution arrangement with the Musicland Group who will be selling our CDs in over a
1000 stores in fifty states through their Sam Goody, MediaPlay, and On Cue music outlets.
USA Video Interactive is also partnering with us in promoting our project via the
Internet. Do check out their site which tells more about it from our recent press

On behalf of the victims of Columbine and our production team, we extend our
heartfelt thanks for USA Video Interactive to catch our vision and run with it!

things that have come from the Columbine tragedy. Our thanks to Pamela Newby,
producer and writer of the story for capturing the vision of our project and spreading the
word of our spirit-filled effort!

Healing Notes
Many of the Columbine victims have shared with us the
wonderful healing our CD has brought them. Aside from the funds being raised, the
music alone is already making a powerful impact on so many of their lives. The
Columbine families are always are in our prayers and we wish them peace and comfort during
the upcoming anniversary which we know will be a challenging time for them.
As we are entering an exciting phase with our wonderful project, we thank
you for your undying support. Stay tuned, as we'll keep you posted on
upcoming events, the progress of our CD and the positive impact it is having on the
Columbine community. God bless!
