Some months back, a song ‘Break the Silence’ was released by the Million Voices for Peace campaign. Proceeds from the sale of the song will go towards supporting the work of the Red Cross Society of Nigeria. The Red Cross is one of the leading humanitarian organizations working to alleviate the sufferings of victims of war, conflicts and other natural disasters in the country and around the world.
This partnership comes at a very special time in the nation’s history as recent reports show that Nigeria has the highest number of internally displaced persons in the country.
