In 2007, Waxploitation established the Causes benefit album series.   The inaugural Causes 1 release raised over $80,000 for 3 non-profits:  Doctors Without Borders, Human Rights Watch and Oxfam America.    Both Causes 1 and the upcoming Causes 2 album focus attention and raise money for these non-profits and their work in Darfur.

Although estimates of the number of people killed by the conflict in Darfur vary widely from 200,000 to 400,000, what is certain is that more than 2 million people have fled their homes because of the fighting, and 4 million are in dire need of humanitarian assistance.  It is widely accepted that this one of the worst crises in the world today.

Please check out Causes 1 on Amazon or iTunes.    Links are provided below.     We expect to announce the release date and tracklisting for Causes 2.   Please sign up below to receive an alert, as well as an opportunity to get your hands on signed, limited edition Causes CDs.
